The New Orleans Convention & Visitors Bureau has created a site exclusively for TechEd attendees—a great place to start at www.neworleanscvb.com/teched, where you'll find everything you need to know about the city, what to do and see, dining, hotel information, and transportation. Plus, download the MeNetwork App, and get discount coupons for more than 50 different attractions, tours and restaurants. International attendees will find helpful hints to make your stay easier as well.

Since we can't resist giving our advice, here are some essential New Orleans highlights you won't want to miss:

Must-eat foods and where to get them:

It's all about the food, right?  First of all, you have to have a Po-Boy, but it may be hard to choose between the shrimp, oyster, or endless other varieties. Why not try a half-and-half? For history on the iconic Po-Boy sandwich and a list of local sources: http://www.neworleansonline.com/neworleans/cuisine/traditionalfoods/poboys.html  (We also hear Crabby Jack's is good: http://crabbyjacksnola.com/)

Beyond the Po-Boy, try these favorites:

Nightlife and music:

You've heard of Pat O'Brien's and the House of Blues (where we hope you'll join the TechEd Jam Session on Tuesday night). But, maybe you're looking for an after-hours hangout with live music, fried pickles, and... bowling? Mid City Lanes Rock 'n' Bowl is a local institution: http://www.rocknbowl.com/

If bowling is not your thing, try:

  • Live local Jazz (no food and standing room only, but a mandatory stop in the French Quarter) at Preservation Hall: http://preservationhall.com  
  • Jazz and dinner at Snug Harbor Jazz Bistro (highly recommended): http://snugjazz.com/site/
  • Check http://www.neworleanscvb.com/nola-micro/nightlife/ for more hot spots around town

Culture and Activities:

If you're planning to extend your stay in NOLA, you'll find plenty to do. The Crescent City is teaming with museums, historical sites, activities, and tours. There are far too many to list, so check out www.neworleanscvb.com/teched for details and special offers for TechEd attendees!

Some of the most popular:

Finally, if you brought your family, New Orleans offers activities galore, including Audubon Aquarium and Audubon Zoo, City Park, and the Louisiana Children's Museum: http://www.neworleansonline.com/neworleans/family/

First Symon introduces the free tools, which include Hyper-V Server 2012 (http://microsoft.com/hvs), Microsoft iSCSI Software Target 3.3 (http://aka.ms/iSCSITarget), Remote Desktop Connection Manager (RDCMan: http://aka.ms/RDCman), and Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT: http://aka.ms/RSAT).

Next, at [11:55] the team walks through an installation of Hyper-V Server 2012 using Windows 8 Client Hyper-V, taking advantage of the lightweight installation package and small storage footprint. Symon then uses RDCMan to manage a new Hyper-V Server 2012 host and discusses some password management features. Then, Rick talks about the GUIless configuration options used to join the Hyper-V Server to the domain, and also discusses different GUI-based remote management options.

Symon then [16:20] installs the iSCSI Software Target, creates an iSCSI target and virtual disks, and connects both hosts to the target through their iSCSI initiators. Next, the team uses PowerShell to initialize and format the newly created iSCSI disks. The team then [28:25] switches to using RSAT for remote server management of the Hyper-V hosts from a Windows 8 laptop. After connecting to the hosts, they install the Failover Clustering feature and being to build the cluster. After validating the Hyper-V hosts and iSCSI storage, the team ends the demo by creating a Failover Clustering.

Begley, Karsten Januszewski 22 http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/TechEd/Announcing-TechEd-Achievements/RSS Tech.Ed teched europe Community Outreach at TechEd North America Giving back to the communities where our events are held is an important part of Microsoft's corporate citizenship efforts.  Last year at TechEd in Orlando we assembled over 3,000 hygiene and activity packs that benefitted the Ronald McDonald Houses of Central Florida and the Florida Hospital for Children, and painted 14 full murals that were installed in Citrus Memorial Hospital.

This year, on Sunday, June 2, hundreds of TechEd attendees and staff will volunteer in the Seabrook neighborhood of New Orleans to help revitalize the area through a variety of activities at a local park and community center.

Building on the work of Microsoft Convergence attendees in March, TechEd volunteers will complete some of these projects at the Seabrook Community Center and begin the first phase of creating a community park for residents of the neighborhood, including:

Community Center Projects: 

  • Build and stain shade cover for Chapel deck
  • Complete gates for new fence to enclose a future ball park
  • Stain 2,000 feet of fencing
  • Complete Senior Lounge

Seabrook Community Park Projects:

  • Build 3 Shade Shelters  
  • Install picnic tables for shelters
  • Paint entire fence surrounding park
  • Build 300 feet of  wooden privacy fencing on one side of park
  • Build raised beds within the park
  • Frame one Habitat House that will be 'raised' in a nearby area

If you can't make it on Sunday, we'll have a variety of activities onsite at the NOMCC throughout the week to give back!  Build much-needed snack kits for U.S. Troops in lockdown and awaiting deployment, lend a hand packaging school supplies for local children in need, or try your hand at one of our art projects that will be donated to local schools and community centers.

We hope you'll join us in making a difference in a community that is still struggling from the effects of one of the most destructive hurricanes in the history of the United States. These projects will benefit children and families in the local area and are sure to bring hope and smiles to those who need it most.  

No registration is required for the onsite activities, but if you are interested in participating in the offsite activities on June 2, we still have a few slots left!  Sign up for a half-day (am or pm shifts) or all day when you register for TechEd (or you may return to your registration record to sign up). No experience is necessary – there will be a variety of opportunities to help!

Thanks in advance for your generosity and participation!

If you're new to TechEd, these "Top 10" tips will help you prepare for an incredible experience and ensure you get the most out of your investment.

#1:       Wear comfortable shoes. You will walk miles—literally! Bring more than one pair of good shoes, so you can focus on learning and networking, not on sore feet. Buy them now and break them in, so they will be truly comfortable by the time you hit the convention center.

#2:       Planning your session schedule before you fly will help you get what you came for.  Use Schedule Builder (for North America and Europe) to find the sessions that you want to attend and add them to your calendar. Have a backup plan. If a session you wanted to attend is full or you find out it's not what you expected, you'll save valuable time by having a Plan B session for each timeslot. Remember, you can also view sessions you missed on-demand here.

#3:       After you've picked up your badge, check your conference guide for info on WiFi set-up, the location of the Technical Help Desk, and Information Center, so you can quickly get help onsite if needed.

#4:       Attend a TechEd101 Session at TechEd North America. Think of it as a TechEd primer covering everything there is to learn and do at the event, so you can take advantage of it. TechEd 101 will be held on Sunday, June 2 at 1:00pm and 4:00pm.

#5:       Talk with EVERYONE. Spend time in the Microsoft Solutions Experience (MSE) in the TechExpo and talk with the product teams. These are the people who created the products, here to help you in-person. Talk with the Speakers... tapping their expert knowledge is a key take-away. And then there are thousands of other techs, just like you, who came to learn and share their experiences.

#6:       Make time in your schedule for Hands-on Labs (HOLs). Remember, HOLs are not only a chance to try out the latest products, but Technical Learning Guides (TLGs) will be on hand to help walk you through or answer questions. Explore the HOL for North America and Europe.

#7:       The TechExpo is big! Check out the participating sponsors and exhibitors for North America and Europe and make a list of companies you want to visit. When you get onsite, use the floor plan in your conference guide to plan your route through the hall.

#8:       Don't sit out the social events. You may be tired at the end of a long day of sessions, but the parties, receptions, and jams are your best chance to network with your peers and Microsoft experts, and have some fun. You won't regret it in the morning.

#9        Get Certified at TechEd. Take advantage of the support available onsite, like the Exam Prep Sessions, Study Hall, and Microsoft Certified Trainers (MCTs) who are here to help you through the process. Plus, you'll get 50% off the regular exam price. Learn more and sign up to take a Microsoft Certification exam at TechEd North America or TechEd Europe.

#10:     Take a big suitcase (or an extra one!).  You'll need room for items you receive or buy at TechEd. Or, consider shipping materials home from the Business Center onsite.

We love our TechEd bags... and this year's TSA-friendly, "upcycled" attendee bag created by Oregon-based LOOPTWORKS will conserve a whopping 33.6 gallons of water EACH and avoid 70% of carbon emissions.  That's something to feel great about!

Check out LOOPTWORKS to learn how they take discarded pre-consumer materials and create one-of-a-kind clothing and gear that is, quite possibly, saving the planet one T-shirt (or bag) at a time. Did you know that it takes 400 gallons of water to create a single 100% cotton T-shirt, and that every week one factory can dispose of as much as 60,000 lbs. of textile waste? That all goes to landfills, unless LOOPTWORKS turns it into cool clothing, gear, or... a TechEd 2013 backpack. 

This is the bag for both TechEd Europe and TechEd North America. The picture below features the TechEd North America logo.  Additional sponsor logos will be added to the final version.

 What's the most important item you'll carry onsite in your TechEd bag?

They come to Microsoft TechEd to: Learn, Connect and Explore.

Sounds simple, right? Here's what they mean:

1. Learn about the future of Microsoft products, solutions and services directly from the leaders, complete with news, announcements and demos. Unlike traditional classroom training with a fixed set of topics, TechEd allows you to personalize your learning experience. Mix and match the sessions—and session types—you want to attend, including breakout sessions, hands-on labs, birds-of-a-feather sessions, keynotes, and more. Each of the four days provides you the opportunity to completely immerse yourself in sessions that offer insight into the products you are working with.

2. Connect with thousands of your peers. Leverage the TechEd North America forum or the TechEd Europe forum beforehand to connect with fellow attendees. Speak with Microsoft product team members who build the products you work with every day, as well as industry experts who are deploying and building Microsoft solutions that may benefit your projects. Explore vendor solutions that can help you achieve your goals. Discuss challenges and brainstorm potential solutions with like-minded individuals at structured networking opportunities including the TechExpo Welcome Reception, Ask the Experts, the Attendee Party in North America and Country Drinks in Europe.

3. Explore products and tools that can make your job easier and cut down on the time you spend troubleshooting issues. There is no better way to learn about Microsoft products than to play with them in the hands-on labs, at demo stations and elsewhere throughout the conference. TechEd is your best chance of the year to see how Microsoft products were made to be used and learn how to use them.

In today's online and always-connected world, there is tremendous benefit in having dedicated time away from your office to focus on advancing your expertise, minus the distractions. By attending TechEd in-person, you are giving yourself the best chance to learn, connect and explore and take advantage of everything the event has to offer. 

Don't delay. Take advantage of the early bird discount pricing:
