Screencast: What's New in Visual Studio 2008?

A few days ago I have recorded a 14' pilot screencast (in Hebrew) titled "What's New in Visual Studio 2008?", aiming to show developers and decision makers what kind of new functionality to expect in the recently released Visual Studio.  In other words, what's in the box?

My expression on the left (which BTW is a static photo, unfortunately) is very grim, but don't worry, I get more vivid during the screencast.

Among the things I demonstrate:

  • Multi-targeting support
  • Multi-threaded debugging improvements
  • Code metrics
  • First steps in LINQ

Feel free to watch and, as always, let me know what you think.  Thanks to Sela and you-niversity for making this possible.

Code Analysis and Code Metrics are only part of the Visual Studio Team Edition.  Here's a link to a comparison chart which shows you which features are present in the various editions: msdn2.microsoft.com/.../cc149003.aspx

If you're willing to try these features out, you could download a free trial of Visual Studio Team Edition, from: www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx

Hope this helps,

Sasha
