Before you acquire power, you must acquire knowledge ““ and Quest Software has what you need! In Jeffery Hicks”™ e-book, “Managing Active Directory with Windows PowerShell,” learn how PowerShell helps you master local accounts and groups, password management, security and permissions and much, much more. You"™ll also learn about the PowerShell extras and out-of-the-box features that will help you control Active Directory.
We hope you can join us on the Ustream channel at 9:30PM EDT tonight for the PowerShell event of the year! During the live stream, we will be giving away, more or less at random, several of the following gifts*:
Jon and I went back and forth on this for a while and to be honest, I never really did change my mind about it but as Facebook Pages can now link to Twitter IDs it only made sense to make a new Twitter account while I was in there. 🙂
We"™ve long had a group on Facebook, but the funny thing about groups is that they are a real dead-end on Facebook, feature-wise. You can"™t add applications like you can on your own profile, and there"™s really not a lot you can do with them. The new cool on Facebook for the sort of thing that we really want to do is to create a page. We actually did that a while back also, but never really spent time on how or why to use them as opposed to groups. Not to mention that for some brilliant reason, you can"™t convert a group to a page, so that means we have to start over.
Please help spread the news as we have our own Windows 7 Launch Party"”just for the part we care about. 🙂 There will be prizes given away to those that show up!
Please copy the below announcement into emails and blog posts, or share this link on Facebook or Twitter! Use the Twitter hashtag #PowerShellLaunchParty
Windows isn’t just about the GUI. Starting with Windows 7, you have built-in access to PowerShell version 2, an object-oriented scripting language and command shell. Please join PowerScripting Podcast hosts Jonathan Walz and PowerShell MVP Hal Rottenberg as they interview Distinguished Engineer Jeffrey Snover on launch day! Jeffrey is the chief architect responsible for PowerShell at Microsoft, and he’ll be covering what’s new with the tool and why every system administrator on the planet needs to be using it. If you’ve never attended PowerScripting Live, you are missing out on a great time. The show will be streamed live via Ustream, and viewers can chat with each other, as well as submit questions for the guest.
Hal and Jon have a lot of fun recording the PowerScripting Podcast. It’s even more fun when people drop by to chat and ask questions of our guests. The show is recorded and streamed live every Thursday at 9:30 PM EST/EDT. We are thinking of doing a special show on Oct 22nd as it’s the release date of Windows 7.
