Last night EDINBUUG welcomed a group of fantastic people to their virtual meetup.
Due to the fact that Meetup.com doesn't allow for discussions / comments that are longer than 700 characters, I thought I write a quick blog and share all the links and packages that we chatted about.
We kicked the meetup off at 6:30pm with a round of introductions and as I was hosting the event this month, I asked all the attendees to mention one fact about themselves that we might not know.
Answers ranged from being Employee of the month when they worked at McDonalds to ....
We then went through some of the latest Umbraco news:
Update Umbraco Search Extensions
