Tech·Ed 2008: Day 3: Agile Development finished, now Mobile

Agile Development session was very interesting, it’s a very direct way of developing, not looking to much ahead, though keeping the architecture in mind (make sure you can implement everything!!!). Also: you show your customer every 2 weeks/every month what you want.

Coming up: creating a home screen for Windows Mobile 6.1, I don’t know what to expect, but it looks interesting :)

I’ll keep you posted!

Tech·Ed 2008: Day 3: Lunch + Session

First things first:

The SQL Server 2008 Full-Text was awesome. Very powerful search, with the stop words, thesauruses, and stuff like that.

After that session I went for lunch…

And it sucked :x I got something like pudding, with a lemon taste and smell. Smelled like those cleaning blocks in the toilet.

Also included was a salad and some sandwiches. I don’t know who compiled the package, but he ought to get a kick in the ass.

Now I am attanding a presentation on WPF Performance! WPF rocks :)

Tech·Ed 2008: Day 3: Startup

Woke up (I was on time :P ), went for breakfast, took the metro to the CCIB, and there I attended a session on how Unit Testing will change in the future.

Unfortunatly, due to the fact I want to bed VERY late I fell asleep. A pitty. :’(

Now I am attending a session on Full Text search in SQL Server 2008. Really cool!

See you in 40 minutes!

Tech·Ed 2008: Day 2 summary

Well well it was a very long day, I don’t have internet @ the hotel, so I am updating now :)

Yesterday I did a session on building a Silverlight info screen, with pagetemplates. It was a session to learn more about Silverlight. Quite nice, good (natural) presentation. Learning a lot here :)

And as last session I did a breakout on Internet Explorer 8 beta 2, and asked a lot of questions.

I might even say I look a bit more happier to Internet Explorer 8 (believe it or not, they made HUGE improvements).

In the evening we went carting (needed to skip the last session :( ), but it was cool :) did a lot of networking :)

I’ll keep you posted!
