Agenda:
Data Access and Network Options in Silverlight
Wondering about the most effective way of getting data into your Silverlight application? Trying to sort out the different options available? Then this session is for you. We’ll open up with an overview of the different networking and data access techniques available in Silverlight. Then, we’ll dive into examples of using each of these technologies, and along the way we’ll also examine the role these technologies play in other .NET applications. Finally, we’ll show you the Sample Data feature in Expression Blend 3, and the best method for transitioning from Sample Data to production data in your applications.
Windows Phone and Windows Live
Interested in the latest enhancements on the Microsoft mobility platform? We’ll end the day with a sneak peak for developers and consumers alike at the new Microsoft mobility platform, including integration with Windows Live services.
Enhancing Developer Productivity with the new Window7 features
Targeted at developers who are new to Windows7, we will focus on demonstrations highlighting the latest and greatest features of the Windows operating system, to emphasize how you can develop applications more productively. We will cover Snap, Shake, Libraries, Problem Recover, and the use of HomeGroups as they pertain to software development, as well as tips and tricks to optimize your applications on the Windows7 operating system.
