It is intended as a community drive site centered on Active Directory and Identity Management. You'll find questions and answers, links to useful tools and resources and blog posts on AD related topics. I blog there at least once a week, typically on how to use PowerShell to administer Active Directory, but I expect to branch out to more topics this year.<\/p>\n

The site is also intended as an ongoing virtual extension to The Experts Conference<\/a> which is probably the best AD-centered conference you could possibly attend.<\/p>\n
