MSDN Regional Tour - Ecuador

This is a cool initiative from Roberth Minga, Microsoft DE (Developer Evangelist) for my country (Ecuador is a small 13 million people country right between Colombia and Perú). During the next two weeks we will visiting ten cities (Ibarra, Quito, Ambato, Riobamba, Cuenca, Azogues, Loja, Machala, Guayaquil, Manta) to show what's coming in 2005 about developer tools, including .NET 2.0, ASP.NET 2.0, C# 2.0, SQL Server 2005, Visual Studio 2005, and smart clients. Even though the focal point in every city will be a two and a half hours event, in several places we will seize the day and have breakfast with local software houses and meetings with developer teams. Tomorrow we will start with Ibarra and Quito (120 km away of each other) but from then on we will enjoy one city per day. The logistics of the trip are also cool: Roberth rented a car and, along with Pablo Narvaéz -our C# MVP-, we will drive along our country roads.
