Devteach in Vancouver and Party with Palermo
I'll be speaking on Silverlight at Devteach in Vancouver the week of November 26th. Devteach is an awesome conference - and this year has a full track on XNA - which should be interesting. And improving on things this year, Jeff Palermo is throwing one of his "Party with Palermo" free parties at the conference! The one he put together here in Seattle at the MVP Summit last year was a ton of fun. Hope you can make it
Almost forgot - some dude named Ken Levy is doing the keynote. Wonder what that's all about? <gd&r>
