Coherent Development Strategy (from PDC)

I loved the
keynotes at PDC
this year - although as I was trying to edit the Day 1 keynote from 2.25 hours to 30 mins for the
#MWord event
I wasn't loving it so much. That said, the thing about editing is that you really have to listen and get behind the words being spoken.
I recommend the whole of the keynotes for you -
particularly Day 1 with Ray Ozzie and Bob Muglia.
For me, most interestingly from Ray Ozzie's keynote was the discussion of "3 screens and a cloud". You've seen this before probably (
maybe from @Stevecla
), but here Ray said we were delivering on a "single coherent development strategy" in order to develop for that paradigm(watch from about 15 minutes in - oh, and enjoy the "instant seek" of the
smooth streaming experience
).
In this he defines the components of that strategy as being:
Tools
:
Visual Studio
and
Microsoft Expression
Runtimes
:
Internet Explorer
and
Silverlight
Platform
:
Windows 7
and
Azure
Of course there's a lot of detail in this - particularly as Bob began to drill down into the detail of the announcements. I'm still getting my head around the whole thing. (I know there's a lot, because I was given a 72-page FAQ doc - and that was just for Day 1).
If you're thinking about how to get across the PDC topic areas at a reasonable level then these are maybe the things to think about to begin with:
Get your hands on the tools:
Visual Studio 2010
and
Expression Studio
Have a look at some of the commentary on the
work we're doing towards Internet Explorer 9
.
Update yourself on
Silverlight 4 via this post from Tim
, or if you're a detail fan, then head to
Mike's blog for 26 blog posts
on the new features.
All of the
Azure stuff can be found from the main site
, but also the delivery of
AppFabric
- the realisation of the Dublin, Velocity (and Sydney) projects really takes some time to digest.
Sooo much stuff to do. Hope this helps.
