Fireside Chats are Microsoft Live Meeting events with key Microsoft executives. The meetings are designed to be very much like a real "fireside chat" - the majority of each meeting is in the form of a discussion rather than a presentation. YOU get to pose the questions.
Although these events are open to all, they are aimed at the needs of User Group Leaders, MVPs and other technical experts.
You can even win a prize!
At each chat we will have an item we will send to a random attendee. Don't expect a new car or free holiday though - it's more likely to be a book or even the shirt off the presenters back, suitably signed by them!
