As the line of a popular song goes, "The summer is magic." Unfortunately, it has one big shortcoming - it goes by very quickly. Over the past few months we released a few new products as well as updates to the existing Telerik portfolio. Now summer is coming to an end and you are likely already preparing for a long Labor Day weekend or perhaps planning to attend Microsoft's //BUILD/ conference in a couple weeks. While I know that you and many of your colleagues in the .NET developer community are wondering what will be announced at //BUILD/ and what the future holds, I'd like to ask for 3 minutes of your time right now to support Telerik in the annual DevProConnections Awards. Of course, collecting awards is not our passion - building great software is - but the occasional award certainly makes us feel good. Everyone at Telerik, like all human beings, likes to be recognized.

Your vote means a lot to us - it shows us that we earned the privilege to call you a Telerik fan and a friend.

As we all prepare for the announcements coming from Microsoft at the //BUILD/ conference I'd like to reassure you that at Telerik we understand that your goal is to deliver results for your business, and you do that by choosing technology that makes most sense for your objectives. In turn, we are committed to providing you with the best tools for any type of work that you might be doing - before and after //BUILD/. Our strategy hasn't shifted - we will continue to provide tools and technologies that help you achieve your goals faster and more easily. Read more

And while on //BUILD/ topic - Telerik is sponsoring the official Geekfest //BUILD/ party - drop us a line at promos@telerik.com to save you a pass. First-come, first-served!
