August 14 XP and Scrum MeetingOther than a slight typo on the address, things went off without a hitch last night for our second meeting. Cory Foy did an excellent job speaking about XP and Scrum. It was an incredible and well-rounded talk on how to introduce and implement XP or Scrum into your organization. I took away a lot of info (not to mention a few straws) I could use to dazzle my co-workers. The power point presentation for Cory’s talk is available here: XPAndScrum.ppt A “Huge Thank You” goes out to Joe Healy for providing us access to the awesome new Microsoft office. AgileThought was our sponsor and provided the pizza for the evening. I can’t say enough great things about them. Thanks guys! Stay tuned for our next meeting’s date already in the planning.
