Steve Jones found this link that has some great thoughts on how software should be used to help build a community. Read this if you have time and post some comments. One thing in particular we liked (read the article!) were the comments about emailing responses. Your comments on this one will help us plan as we continue to try to build a better site/community.
Expanding on the issue of reviewing software for SQL Server, Steve Jones proposes some standards for reviews in this article. Please take a moment to read and comment on this proposal to better help SQL Server Central.com provide you with the information that you need.
Have you ever had the problem where a user ran a query against your SQL Serer and crashed it or made the server unusable since the CPU was spiked at 100%?

We've all seen the numbers published about how well very db vendors do on the TPC tests - have you ever visited the site that sponsors the tests? Or looked to see what hardware and software configuration was used to achieve the score? Lots of good information on this site!
This week we have another article from Andy that discusses some changes he made at work in conjunction with clustering all his database servers. Not a how-to, just comments about what was changed and why. Worth reading just for the reminder about the potential gotcha that @@ServerName can represent.
Nothing super new here that has been rumored, this article outlines some of the changes we'll get to see in the next SQL release!
This article expands Steve Jones' look at ways to audit changes by examing how you can deal with the large amounts of data generated.
This is a product we haven't reviewed yet, but looks interesting. A SQL editor type app, features listed include integration with Visual SourceSafe, 'intellisense' statement completion, and keyboard macro's.
We've had a good run of jobs about job management lately, Randy sent us another one that looks at the job of job management and shows us how he tackled the problem.
