[Events] Developer Night in Canada (DNIC) User Group Tour: Winnipeg Follow-up
Last night, the Developer Night in Canada (DNIC) user group tour kicked off with a bang in Winnipeg. With approximately 70 people in the audience, I tried my best to show some of the coolest features of ASP.NET "Atlas". For some folks, Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) and ASP.NET "Atlas" just clicked. For others, it took a while to make the mental leap forward into this brave, new world. At the end of the presentation, I think I had enough people convinced that what I was showing them was, ultimately, goodness.
During my presentation, I got a lot of great questions. Many of them I could answer, while others I could not. Earlier this morning, I spent some time doing some research and found answers to some of the questions asked last night.
For those folks looking to find out more information about ASP.NET "Atlas" XML script, check out Nikhil Kothari's Weblog. (A great resource on ASP.NET "Atlas".) Specifically, he has an entry where he describes some of the reasoning behind this technology. You can read it here.
For those folks who asked about the caching story with ASP.NET "Atlas": Check out Scott Guthrie's Weblog post on ASP.NET applications in debug mode for more information.
And for those folks who asked me questions that I couldn't answer: Please make sure to send me your questions. (You can reach me here.) I will try to get them answered ASAP.
Update: I've posted my photos of the event to my Flickr account, which you can see here. (These photos were taken at the very beginning and end of the event.)
