Channel9 Interview: Visual Basic Language Design Meeting

Published 23 July 08 06:02 PM

I sat down with the VB Language design team and asked them about their design process, favorite features, their thoughts on other languages, as well as what the Visual Basic language strategy really is. It was a fun and enlightening interview with a group of really smart people lead by Paul Vick. You can find most of the team members writing on the Visual Basic Team Blog.

Stay tuned for more interviews like these... 

Enjoy!

In my 2 cents worthy opinion, among all those great men, Paul was the self confident person in this interview. He hold this talent of making you want to purchase the next version even before it is released.

You got your magic too Beth. Your videos clarifies loads of thing that makes anyone says "I can do that too !!!"
