    Penny Pinching in the Cloud: How to run a two day Virtual Conference for $10

    We've just finished Day One of "" our community-run free online conference for developers who love the .NET development platform and open source!

    The Conference Platform

    It seems funny to call the software our conference runs on a "platform" as that sounds very "enterprisey" and official. In the past we've done and with sponsors who helped pay for things. We used Channel 9 and had a studio and streamed either from Seattle or using Live Meeting.

    However, this year we wanted to do it on the cheap and more distributed. We wanted speakers from ALL over in all time zones. How cheap? About USD$10ish we figure. I'll get a complete bill later, but we basically wanted to scale up, do the talks and scale down.

    You read that right: Not the year of the Linux desktop, the year of the Linux car. Major automotive companies are investing in making Linux their cars' operating system of choice.

    Streaming logs from Azure. That's insane!

    I’ve long said . Sometimes "got here"-debugging is a great tool. I tend to use System.Diagnostics.Trace a lot in my code. Then I'll use or to get more insight.

    Lately though, I've been and have been wanting to get at trace data, sometimes at the .

    I'll do this to deploy (or deploy from Visual Studio):
