So if you are a .NET Blogger, be sure to sign up here for your FREE XDN Professional membership before the end of the month. After that, its $99. I’ll finalize by quoting blogger Shannon J Hager‘s reply to my comments on his post about this offer. (thanks Shannon for the acknowledgement):
I just want to help make sure people realize that this is a great deal at the normal price. I think a lot of us automatically think "free" means "near worthless" because of the things we’ve seen [so many times] that have reinforced the idea of "you get what you pay for" and when you see something for a lower-than-believable price, it raises suspicions. I had hoped that pointing out the benefits you and the component makers will recieve, as well as the benefits the subscribers recieve, will help things make sense for anyone who has doubts.
Hi
I signed up as requested and within the timescales but have not heard anything since – is this offer being honoured.

Yes it is. Since going to TechEd I got sick and now I’m way behind. You signed up after my comment on the post that said I was leaving for TechEd and wouldn’t get done for a while. I have been planning on finishing those up for the past several days, but my personal bandwidth has simply been maxed, working 16 to 18 hour days. I hope to get those emails out within a few days.
Sorry to hear you’ve been unwell – hope you’re feeling better!
