There was a blogger named Katie Jacques and GIS was her game-o...

Like the catchy title?  Me too!  I have 2 little kids at home so we sing a lot of silly songs, the favorite right now of course is Old MacDonald, so it's fresh in my head. 

Down to business -

I'm back, this time with a new name and a new attitude - to take over the GIS world!  Ok, a bit ambitious, but come one, GIS is fun, so why not have a little fun with it?  Seriously, my goal with this blog is to share - share information, tips and tricks, and other fun and noteworthy info about Autodesk and the GIS products.  Hopefully you will feel after following my blog for a bit, that I accomplish just that.

With regards to the name change, the old name, MapTech, was great, but seems someone else out there in cyberspace was using it for a livelihood, so I thought we'd let 'em have it, first come first serve.

So GIS Exchange is the new name of this fancy blog, same great Autodesk products, and I promise more posts as well!

To the old fans, thanks for following me over here.  And to the new fans, welcome and ENJOY!
