Support SPDevWiki by Sponsoring SPC Shirts
For all 10 of you guys who read my blog and the 200 or so bots that are there to make me feel comfortable I learned something really sad tonight.  Jeremy Thake, who runs http://www.sharepointdevwiki.com, lost his shirt sponsor for SharePoint Conference.  We all use it as developers in the SharePoint world from correct disposal to how would you loop through a series of items in a list.  So come on guys you know you want to sponsor the shirts he was going to make up for SharePoint Conference so we all can promote a website that helps the SharePoint Community.  Jeremy doesn’t maintain this site for
