Hello Everyone, Hope you had a wonderful October! Here's a summary of what we had to offer to the Tech Comm community last month. In case you, a friend or a colleague missed out on anything useful or important, we hope this will serve as a ready reference. October News of the Month: October provided a bountiful harvest of blogs, webinars and videos from Adobe TCS. We have fewer entries than normal this month due to several days on the road with conferences, (it seems that October is always the busiest month). We think you will be pleased with what we have to offer however. Highlights of our activity included sponsorship and presentations at the Lavacon Conference in Portland, Oregon and WritersUA East in Providence, Rhode Island. Adobe TCS held a major event, "Adobe Day", Sunday October 20th, to kick off Lavacon. You can read our blog with links to presenters’ slides at: Adobe Day and Lavacon Highlights 1.
