Registration is now open for the Windows Server 2008 / SQL Server 2008 / Visual Studio 2008 Joint Launch Event. The kickoff event is in LA on February 27, 2008. The LA event starts the worldwide launch tour. For those that cannot make it to an in-person event, there is also a Virtual Event — there is a public video of the alpha code the launch team is working on here. The theme of the Launch is “Heroes Happen Here” which showcases how IT Professional’s are heroes enabling people to work better, faster, smarter, and solving everyday problems. The Launch site is here.

You can also add your profile, picture, and story to the portrait gallery here.

The Heroes Happen Here (HHH) team also launched a blog last week. The blog highlights the strategy and the nuts and bolts of building the laucnh site. It’s called From The Engine Room of HHH.

There is also a HHH comic here.
