PDC 05 - Contests, Podcasting and Channel9

Our PDC 05 site for Channel9 just went live today: http://channel9.msdn.com/pdc !!!

There you will find some of what I've been working on since I moved to Microsoft's corporate campus two months ago.

First, there's a cool contest where you can win free* registration, hotel and travel (*travel voucher worth up to $1000) for the upcoming Professional Developer's Conference to be held in Los Angeles September 13th through the 16th.  You can do this in one of two ways:  Write a Shareware application using our new Shareware Starter Kit or write a blog entry.  Two lucky shareware developers and one blogger will win.  Enter now through August 12th and find out on August 15th if you're a winner.

Second, I can now say I'm a "professional" podcaster <grin>

On the Channel9 site is my first of a series of pre-PDC podcasts that I get to create during working hours.  I wrote a new music theme for the show and even got to come up with a cool name for the series: The Buzzcast.

So, download, write, win and let me know what you think of the Buzzcast!

Oh yeah, and last but not least, there's new Flair for your blog/webpage you can use to let everybody know you're going to be coming to the PDC!
