December 21 Macedonian Exchange User Group - Fourth MeetingOn Tuesday, 18th of December, Macedonian Exchange User Group members had their fourth meeting.
The change of date was because of the Christmas and New Year's holidays.
First of all, I introduced the group members with the activities during the previous month.
The second part of the meeting was a technical session by Dimitar Grozdanov (Microsoft Macedonia), Zoran Zasovski and Darko Nikolovski (Login Systems).
The session topic was Unified Communications demo of Office Communications Server 2007, Office Communicator 2007, Exchange Server 2007 SP1 and SharePoint Server 2007. The complete infrastructure contained from virtual machines, desktop clients, USB phones, IP Phones and mobile devices. It was a really impressive demo and everyone was very excited about this cool technology.
At the end, we wished everyone Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
As usual we had a special networking/refreshments part of the meeting where a lot of discussions and plans about the new technologies were made.
Next meeting is planned for the last Wednesday in January, and we will have more sessions about this technology for sure.
