MCSE underway

I haven't blogged for a while. That is because I have finally knuckled down to studying for the MCSE upgrade exams. I have found a wealth of info on the web, mainly webcasts, but a few podcasts as well. Ideal for listening to while down the gym. The Microsoft website has viewable webcasts for a range of subjects, I have mainly been concentrating on Active Directory, DNS and Group Policy. One light hearted resource I have come accross was ITIdiots.com, they are covering the MCSE course structure so have webcasts for DNS, DHCP and Group Policy. With watching all these, reading the course books and running through the Transcender test prep exams, there is little time left for a life.

The powers upon high have decided to make some pretty drastic changes to one of my applications where I work, so that will mean a major rewrite. The SQL upgrade has been well and truly ditched for now. Ho hum.
