Two weeks ago I was in Chicago for Microsoft Ignite and I was working in the Ask the Experts Area on the Intelligent Apps booth, I had a great time and had the privilege of speaking to many different people from all around the world, the highlight was when a guy from Japan came up to me and started using his phone to converse with me and ask me questions, he knew very little English and of course I knew zero Japanese but we managed to have a long conversation and I hope I managed to help him with some information.
