Hi, I’m Craig Bailey and this is my personal blog where I write about technology, business systems, HubSpot, marketing strategy and general life experiences. You can read my posts here.
(If you are looking for the Content is King post by Bill Gates it is here)
I’m involved with three agencies in Sydney:
I also co-host HubShots, the podcast and YouTube show focussed on getting the most out of HubSpot. We are the creators of the HubShots Framework.
Here’s some interesting stats from the OzFox networking session. At the networking session there were 40 or so attendees (plus the speakers). I have not included the speakers in the results below. I asked the following questions about VFP developer ‘behaviour’: How many people attend User Groups (VFP or other): 21 (ie ~50%)How many read blogs (VFP or other): 23 (ie >50%)How...
This Wed we have an interesting meeting.
First up we will be discussing the recent announcement regarding VFP.
Next, Doug Bower will be repeating his excellent session from last year covering connecting to MYOB via VFP.
Then, as usual we will finish with our Q+A session.
Details on the UG site –
See you there at 6:30pm for free pizza and drink.
Newcomers welcome!
Much to be said about this in the coming weeks, but for now I think he has given us a good summary and clear direction. Plenty to discuss – I’ll be posting about this in a week or so once I have collected all my thoughts… btw YAG, thank you for all the hard work you and the team have done lately. I have such high respect for you. I wouldn’t like to be in your shoes at the...
I’m way behind on my post conference posts, but here’s a few photos in the interim:

After a very comfortable and hassle free flight I’ve made it to my hotel in Seattle (I’m here for the MVP Summit starting on Monday). I spent a few hours wandering around downtown: checking out the Pike Place Markets (as you do) and then trying in vain to find a coffee place {g}. After searching high and low for a Starbucks I was only able to find 37 of them within an hour...
Rick Schummer opens the keynote with an overview of the Sedna and SP2 CTPs. The Sedna enhancements include a whole bunch of stuff, let’s go through some of them. First up Rick demonstrated the enhancements in the data Explorer. Beginning with the new optuins form, he highlighted the showplan option. You can picj the location of the upsizing wizard, which allows you to interchange and use...
In a shock announcement, Dick Cheney has pulled out of attending OzFox this weekend. Cheney, a passionate Visual FoxPro supporter, had hoped to attend the OzFox conference, but after being greeted with protesters and abuse upon his arrival to Sydney, the US Vice-President decided it would be inappropriate to attend, and instead cut short his visit (now leaving on Sunday). In a statement released...
Milind’s February letter points us to the latest Sedna CTP release You beauty! Just in time for OzFox. I wonder if I can get this onto all the conference memory sticks in time… The most interesting part of the release is the new Vista common dialogs – can’t wait to see it in action (attention: plug for OzFox keynote in progress :-) Technorati tags: Visual FoxPro, OzFox...
That’s right folks, only a few days to go until the FoxPro mayhem starts… www.ozfox.com.au One thing I’m really glad about is that we’ve easily covered all our costs this time! This might sound strange, but as some know, last time I ran the conference we made a big loss. Much of this was my fault and I’m especially thankful that Peter (Talman’s MD) has given me...
Yet another update from Goran of his Tab Menus concept. This one (which again I have to admit I haven’t had a chance to look at yet :-) has updates to both the code and doco, plus a script for generating the code to make the menus work.
