I caught this over at Andrew Connell's blog. AC makes reference to Ted Pattison's “What are Features?” post to understand them. If you are into MOSS and/or WSS v3 you'll want to get up-to-speed. AC also has updated his resource page covering Features, and it can be found at http://andrewconnell.com/blog/articles/MossWcmResources.aspx#Features- - great stuff!

This weekend my oldest son and I are going to the Oklahoma Wichita Wildlife Reserve. It boasts of over 550 animals. We will be camping underneath the stars, fishing, elk and buffalo observing and hiking. I look forward to this time with my son. He is about to turn thirteen (13) years-old and boy 'ol boy is he turning into a man 'ol man. They grow up quick. Then I have three other sons coming up the ladder. Maybe we can make this an annual event - guy time.
