Shaun Walker, the original creator of DotNetNuke, gives his keynote address at DNNWorld 2012.

Hear what he has to say about all the bells and whistles that are included in Version 7. This latest and greatest version of DotNetNuke has a healthy emphasis on Mobile and Social online interactions.

Jim and Don just flew back from Orlando and boy, are their arms tired.

But seriously, folks! The boys packed a ton of learning and networking into their days at DNNWorld 2012 and have returned to the office inspired by nifty new modules, cool tools and forward-thinking strategies.

Read on to see how this wealth of information applies to YOUR website.

After a full day of DotNetNuke classes and networking, our Mighty Mini Marvels of Content Management retire to the Sprocket Rocket sitting cloaked on the rooftop of the Lake Buena Vista Palace.

"Quite a full day, TechMan. My head is spinning with the new knowledge I've acquired this day."

TechMan quipped back, "Are you sure it's not the martinis, Sprocketeer?"

"Right you are, old @#$#@ chum. But let's recap. What did we observe today?"

The sound of reggae and calypso music floats across the water and down the path leading to the poolside party. Sprocketeer follows the sound of the steel drum as he makes his way in complete stealth to infiltrate the DNNWorld Opening Reception. 

But it wasn't easy. Even in the lush resort area, alligators and black snakes were a threat to our Mighty Mini Marvel of Content Management.

Peering out from the inside of a suitcase that was moments ago run through an airport X-Ray machine, Sprocketeer makes an observation: "Good. I successfully passed through security. Wearing the lead-lined briefs did the trick! Only a minor tingling."

Now our Gallant Gearhead reviewed the rest of the plan. "Check in with TechMan, then hold out quietly in the bag until the unsuspecting web developer and DNN World attendee arrives in his room, and then sneak out."

Will he succeed? Read on, true believers! 

TechMan signals the Gallant Gearhead via the Streaming Krimestopper Yvesdropping Protocol Engine (SKYPE) : "Sprocketeer, I've just learned Joomler is up to his old tricks with a local business owner, trying to get him to build a website with quite the come-on. He's so two-faced." 

"You're literally correct, TechMan. His front face looks harmless enough, but his rear face is twisted and evil." retorted Sprocketeer. "What's your plan?"

What IS the plan? And how will Sprocketeer reach DNNWorld. Read on, true believer!

Seated at yet another cheap website, we find a man, his head in his hand, staring at his reflection in the bottom of a beer glass.

"Why did I fall for her? It all happened so fast. It all seemed so easy. She was so, so .. attractive. She promised a good time. All I said was, 'A little to the right' and she became a monster! I guess I'll just have to ... learn to live with it!"

Our Mighty Mini Marvels of Content Management, Sprocketeer and TechMan, had heard this story all too often. "We can help. Sit tight" said the Gallant Gearhead. "First, let's go find Word Empress."

Safely returned from reconnaissance in Orlando, Sprocketeer converses from main headquarter with his heroic partner in website heroics, TechMan, taking Sprocket Rocket to the West Coast lair.

"I think I'll catch the talks on responsive design and mobile, TechMan. We've been watching Gravity Works for some time, since they came on the scene at Chicago Day of DotNetNuke." 

TechMan concurred. "Very well, Sprocketeer. I see the need for shifting identity, eh? After all, we shift our look from superheroes to everyday web designers, depending on the circumstances. I'll check out the cloud hosting and new version 7. And I'll go to Brinkman's talks. Those are always good."

Sprocketeer agreed. "I've always suspected Joe of having an alter ego. I look forward to seeing it revealed on Thursday night. So... we're all set for the sessions. Now it's just a matter of time."

"In the meantime, let's look at our other web crime monitors," returned TechMan, "and see if any arch nemisis...es are causing any trouble. Maybe we can squeeze in a fight with Word Empress or Joomler before we head to sunny Florida."

Tune in next time, web believers, for another exciting episode.
