Woohoo, the Microsoft Surface team has a blog! In their own words:
Our plan with this blog is to share the latest and greatest developments within our group, meet our unique team, give you sneak peeks at new features, apps, demos and cool UX interactions.
So how do we program this thing? I guess we'll have to find out. I once heard from a reliable source...
"Our design goal is to make it so that anyone with experience building applications in C# using WPF or XNA can pick up our platform with a very minimal learning curve."
Nice; same source told me to bookmark the Surface blog, additional details are coming soon!
Programming Microsoft Surface - where's the VB.NET love?
Maximus, great question for the Surface team. Seriously, it would be silly if the IL that runs on Surface could only come from C# source :)
