I'm super excited to head off to AUDC, Avectra's Users and Developers Conference in Orlando on Sunday. Will you be there? If so please stop by - I'll be doing two fishbowl sessions, one with Jamie Notter following his Keynote on Day Two, where we will have a great, powerpoint-less discussion on the topics of the day.

Allow your stakeholders access by letting them vote on the most important questions and get notified when a response is given."
