This weekend I will be at the Atlanta Code Camp this Saturday. I have four talks and they follow the predictable Silverlight and Data topics. Here are the talks:

  • Using Blend 2.0 for Silverlight
  • Consuming Data with Silverlight 2
  • Digging into Deep Zoom
  • Using C# 3.0 Features for Clean Code

In addition, we giving away a seat at the upcoming Atlanta stop of the Silverlight Tour (on May 12-14th, 2008).  Com early and state late to be there for the drawing.  The code camp is giving away a number of prizes, this is just one of them.

Hopefully, i'll see you there!

Listen to me on .NET Rocks Talk About Silverlight

Head over to http://www.dotnetrocks.com/default.aspx?showNum=258 to listen to my appearance on the .NET Rocks show with Richard and Carl. I talk at length about Silverlight and take on all comers.

Trip to Washington, DC

I had a lot of fun in DC.  I headed out to do an INETA talk for the Capitol Area .NET Users' Group.  Trish and I had time to visit some sights but were ready to come home.  Click on the picture to see our pictures on Flickr.

Fun at Capital Area .NET User's Group

I had a great time at the Capital Area .NET User's Group tonight. Right before my talk we had an exciting thirty minute power outage. I was considering how to explain Silverlight without a projector when the power came back. We had fun talking about where Silverlight fits into the web story and where it might not fit.  Take a look at the presentation at the blog link if you're interested in what we covered.

I am Speaking at the Atlanta .NET Users' Group Today

I'll be giving a new talk on "Authoring WPF Controls" which includes compositing, styling, templates, user controls and custom controls.  If you're interested in any of this come and see me give this talk for the first time!  No heckling please ;)
