  • PDC09 : Hanging out with Microsofties, or why PDC09 is different from every conference I’ve attended

    So far I am expriencing PDC09 much differently than any other conference I’ve ever participated. First, Thanks to Glenn Block I have a role to play, yesterday I hanged out with Glenn at the speakers lounge meeting people I’ve reading theire blogs for so long time, people such as Nikhil Kothari, Matthew Podwysocki and many more. Second, Last PDC my laptop had died 2 days before flying over. This year I feel I am blogging and twittering for every second breath. Feel Free to follow me (twitter.com/ArielBH...
  • PDC09 : Advanced WPF Application Performance Tuning and Analysis

    http://microsoftpdc.com/Sessions/CL11 In this presentation, a WPF Facebook like application was presented. Unfortunately the application has issues. during the session we have walked some classic scenarios and some are a bit far fetched (at least from my experience). If you are a WPF developer, see the video, this session should go through video really good, because you will be able to see all the small mouse gestures the presenters are doing  with each application they have used to analyze...
  • PDC09 : Managing Development to Inspire Innovation and Create Great User Experiences

    http://microsoftpdc.com/Sessions/VTL30 Bottom line, I recommend you watching this session on Video when it would be available probably tomorrow. Why? Cool Demos. All demos are visual and interesting, it’s really hard to exite most people with a clustering algorithm, but give them a DeepZoom app and sea how everybody starts to the enjoy the smooth experience. Interesting tips on driving innovation on your team. I also liked UI tips being discuessed some are a bit trivial like never life work on you...
  • PDC09 : 1st Keynote Summary

    So this is kind of a live blogging from the PDC09’s keynote. Bottom line, as I’ve suspected no big announcements in today’ss keynote. But… it might be for the best, Microsoft focuses on maturing many projects that were discussed on last year PDC. Windows Azure starts to gain momentum with customers using it and driving feedbacks to the team, and as with this timing Azure is about to get into production state, some projects are already starting on getting online for production versions, projects such...
  • PDC09 : How Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Was Built with WPF 4

    http://microsoftpdc.com/Sessions/CL09 Live blogging. Reasons for VS to use WPF: You better lead by example, if you want people to use WPF, you must use it in house, intresting that it was the 1st point. WPF strong patterns of separation of concerns between UI an logic. Maturity of WPF. Plenty of rich UIs that VS needs that is much more easy to accomplish with WPF rendering engines. I guess that 3d driven designers and VS features are around the corner. Drive WPF into the area of building really complicated...
  • PDC09 So far.

    Today was our 3rd day at LA. From a personal perspective, I’ve kept myself busy preparing my sample app for Glenn’s session which he kindly enough invited me to preset with him that Sample app. http://microsoftpdc.com/Sessions/FT24 One on one with Glenn, paring to refactor the sample code, the framework it is using, It is extremely valuable for me to learn from a guy such as Glenn who knows the insides and outsides of MEF. Really cool. Sela’s presence in the conference is really impressive, a swarm...
