Behold the holiday edition of our podcast at cstechcast.com. This week we chat with Steve Jones from SQLServerCentral.com about the new compression features in SQL Server 2008. Make sure you check out the web site for MS SQL help and news. In the news, Google not as cool as we thought, IE 6 security hole, new releases, and malware is becoming harder to deal with. Plus, "The Worst Tech Move of the Week", "Meet your Local User Group", and "The IT Pet Peeve".
