New year, new ideas for Windows IT Pro

It's a new year and we're looking for new ideas for coverage and expert contributions from you on Windows IT Pro. We're planning to devote more time to covering business intelligence, security, big data and cloud topics, and IT careers. What else would you like to see, or not ?      

Your feedback and ideas are truly valued by our team so please share. We take a lot of pride in being the destination for technology leaders. Tell us how we can help you do your jobs better with the right mix of news and expert how-to content, what's on your mind, what keeps you up at night that we can help you solve. Besides giving us regular feedback, there are lots of ways for you to contribute to Windows IT Pro.

We launched IdeaXchange last year and it's been growing ever since across our Penton Technology sites. We're anxious to recruit more of you in 2015 to IdeaXchange to share your thoughts, ideas, tips and tricks, participate in the interesting conversations taking place each day, and make new business connections. You'll have your own column or blog to connect with our audience. You don't have to post every day though we encourage expert contributors to do so once a week. There's no requirement for how short or long a post has to be. You can hang out a shingle and solicit and answer questions, ponder and debate the issues of the day, or just share an article around tech thought leadership and kick off a lively conversation.   

We also offer terrific online learning and events too, and we're always looking for terrific class ideas, expert trainers, speakers and participants. By the way, be sure to save the date on your calendar and register now for IT/Dev Connections Sept. 14-17 at the Aria Resort in Las Vegas.

Our Penton Technology sites -- Windows IT Pro, SharePoint Pro, SQL Server Pro, SuperSite for Windwos, IT/Dev Connections and Dev Pro on the IT side and The VAR Guy, MSPmentor, and Talkin' Cloud on the channel side of the business -- reach more than 2.7 million technology professionals. You can too. If you're interested in contributing, contact Rod Trent, who oversees Windows IT Pro or me at [email protected]. 

Look forward to hearing from you!
