# Had fun speaking at INDA (Ireland .NET user group)

By Roy Osherove August 9, 2005 In [Community](https://osherove.com/blog/category/community)

**Historical article** · Originally published August 9, 2005; technical details may be outdated.

I'd like to thank [Paschal](http://weblogs.asp.net/pleloup) for arranging my speaking at the [INDA users group](http://developers.ie/) in Ireland last Friday. It was really a great bunch of people and I was pretty excited (and tired from a full week f training I've done just before coming on) to do it.

I did two talks: Intro to Agile development and Unit testing best practices. I'll hopefully have links to the slides later this week. the talk was also audio recorded and(!) video recorded. When that's up I'll let you know...

In any case, some pictures from the event are attached from your viewing pleasure.

_Those who have not seen me in a while might notice a slight(ly large) weight gain. All I can say is - I'm working on it :)_

The INDA crowd was... engaged ;)
