I'm really excited about the work we've done, and can't wait to share it with you.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But for some immediate news : on Nov 8th and 9th, I will be doing two talks at the &lt;a href="http://www.siliconvalley-codecamp.com/"&gt;Silicon Valley Code Camp&lt;/a&gt; - if you are around, check it out! Drop by and say hi - it's free, and I hear there's free food! I will be doing two talks there:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul&gt;   &lt;li&gt;The first talk is on &amp;quot;LINQ fundamentals&amp;quot; which will be based on some of the content that I've posted here before. To sum it up, I'll show you exactly what happens when you use a LINQ expression in your code. I'll be doing my samples in VB, but the content is applicable to any one who uses LINQ. &lt;/li&gt;    &lt;li&gt;The second talk will be &amp;quot;Introducing F#&amp;quot; where I will show off the new &lt;a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/fsharp/default.aspx"&gt;F# programming language&lt;/a&gt; (we released a &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=61ad6924-93ad-48dc-8c67-60f7e7803d3c&amp;amp;displaylang=en"&gt;CTP&lt;/a&gt; recently). If you haven't tried it, try it out! &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As usual, you can expect my talks to be heavily demo based, and I love taking questions and discussing things on the spot, so expect an interactive, fun time.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you're in the area and want to drop by and say hi, come on down! It should be a blast, and I'll definitely be around during the entire conference just chatting, learning, talking, and having a good time.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="wlWriterSmartContent" id="scid:0767317B-992E-4b12-91E0-4F059A8CECA8:714408ef-e31a-41d6-a8e0-7c0960ad1e9a" style="padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 0px"&gt;Technorati Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tags/VisualBasic" rel="tag"&gt;VisualBasic&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tags/LINQ" rel="tag"&gt;LINQ&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tags/CodeCamp" rel="tag"&gt;CodeCamp&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tags/SiliconValleyCodeCamp" rel="tag"&gt;SiliconValleyCodeCamp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=8971183" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/timng/archive/tags/VisualBasic/default.aspx">VisualBasic</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/timng/archive/tags/LINQ/default.aspx">LINQ</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/timng/archive/tags/CodeCamp/default.aspx">CodeCamp</category></item></channel></rss>
