Beginning Microsoft Sql Server 2008 Programming book by Wrox
I finally finished reading this book, it took me a while though, almost 2 months with all my travel around, but at the end I must conclude that it is a great book, I can recommend to everyone who wants to learn more about sql server and how to program more efficiently with sql language. The book covers all from very basic stuff to some intermediate level. There is one more part of this book, which I hope to read in near future and is the advanced programming in sql server 2008.

Pubcon Las Vegas 2010
My first post will be about the conference which I attended in the last 4 days. Pubcon conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.
This post is written while I am waiting for my flight to Jacksonville, FL via Dallas, TX.
One of the biggest Internet Marketing seminars, PubCon is certainly the place to be if you want to learn the latest trends in the Search Engine Optimization field, the social media, affiliates and much more.
After the last spring conference in Dallas, TX, this would be my second time to visit the conference, and I don't regret at all.
The key note this tear was all mostly around the social media, how to leverage the followers/fans and convert them easily.
The prediction will be one of the main things in the future, search engines will be suggesting, predicting things which you are interested to do instead of just displaying results which are static or obscure.
The connections you have from your social circles and their opinion about the things you are searching will play more important rule in the search results.
Bing is keeping to raise but we will need to see if it will be able to keep up with Google and what more they will show. For now, there was a stat displayed at one of the panels that the people who tend to visit sites through Bing are 11% more likely to buy stuff then the people who are doing that through Google.
What about Google? Google is using more and more social media data and it uses that to display more updated search results. Their tools are getting more and more advanced, and most of all they are free.
Facebook Ads are becoming more interesting as well, mostly because there are many different criterias under which the ad can be set, and that includes demographic filtering, interests, hobbies, etc.
Well, Got to go now, I will make sure to give better summary of the conference once I will land in FL and get some decent sleep.
Thanks for reading!
