Win a Kindle Fire Courtesy of Idera on SQL Cruise Alaska 2012
Idera Software is back as a sponsor for SQL Cruise and they continue to not only provide the SQL Community with tools for SQL Server (as well as Sharepoint and Powershell) but they also continue to bring excitement and some nice prizes to the networking and team-building events on board SQL Cruise! This also means the Idera Iditarod will be back on SQL Cruise Alaska. What is the Idera Iditarod? Well you take a bit of Amazing Race and add a sliver of Minute to Win It and you have the Idera Iditarod. Teams of two will be tasked with answering SQL Server-related questions that will send them to different locations on the ship, from there they’ll need to bring back a package which they’ll open only to find a mini-game that they’ll need to solve in the training room for our cameras. (Check out clips from the Idera Iditarod on our 2011 Alaskan SQL Cruise.) Combining fun, technical, and networking is core of what we work towards on SQL Cruise and the Idera Iditarod is just one of those ways in which the FUN takes center stage. In the past Idera has provided us with Flip Mini HD video recorders for our winners; this time around they take it up a notch and are awarding Kindle Fires. As an owner of an iPad and a Kindle Fire I can tell you that I do 100% of my reading on my Fire. It’s also fully-functional for games, social media, and productivity tools. You can also read my book as well as those authored by many of the speakers aboard SQL Cruise Alaska 2012 on the Kindle Fire!
There is still time to join us on SQL Cruise Alaska 2012. Registration information is at http://sqlcruise.com/register
