Going to be in Austin TX for MEC 2014? Here’s some cool stuff to do while you’re here!


If you plan on attending MEC (Microsoft Exchange Conference) 2014 in Austin TX March 31st-April 2nd, you won’t be hard pressed to find cool things to do while you’re here. Austin’s a great city, in which all of us who contribute to this blog live. For that reason I decided to make this document containing a list of places to visit, eat, drink, & in general have a good time. Jedi, Ron, & myself will all be attending MEC as well as hanging around the downtown area throughout the week so please feel free to say hello if you see us. Also, if you haven’t booked your conference pass for MEC yet, I highly recommend it as it’ll be a great educational/networking experience; just like MEC in Orlando was.

Since MEC registration went live on Oct 1st & since I’ve lived in Austin for a while, I thought I’d share some things to do while you all are in town.  I know many people will either be coming early or staying late since they have a long way to travel & they might be looking for additional activities around the Austin area. Feel free to send this along to your friends/colleagues. I imagine it’s better to make your plans now since we have plenty of time. 

Microsoft Exchange Conference


9/24 Starts the first day of the Microsoft Exchange Conference (MEC).

For those that don’t yet know, this awesome event has been MIA for 10 years, we are excited to say it’s back!

This is a great time to see what’s new in Exchange, meet product group, MCMs, MVPs and other exchange enthusiasts.

All of our authors will be there, you can find us in whiteboard sessions, the Dell/Quest booth, and of course “in the halls” of MEC.

Stop by the booth and visit, or say hi if you see one of us in the halls!
