Next Gig 6/24 - .NET 3.5 Language Enhancements
Our own
Daniel Pratt from Tyler Technologies will be speaking at our next meeting on
Tuesday, June 24 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
LINQ gets all the attention these days, but it's only one of a long list of
enhancements added to C# and VB.NET in .NET 3.5 / Visual Studio 2008. In this
talk, Daniel will be showing how the new features will change the way you
program in .NET.
Register for this event now. And please register
early if you are coming, so we know how much pizza to order.
IMPORTANT NOTE: We have outgrown our conference room at the Hampton
Inn and will be meeting at Husson College from now on! All meetings are in
Kominsky Hall which is in Peabody Hall, the main building on the right side of College
Circle. When you come to College Circle, turn left and loop around
to the big parking lot for Peabody Hall, then Kominsky Hall is on your right as you
enter Peabody Hall.

Step Into
The Silverlight – Chris Bowen, Microsoft
In this talk, we’ll
introduce the concepts behind Silverlight, what it does, when you might use it in
your web applications, and how to use it. You’ll see some of the interesting ways
customers are using Silverlight to improve the user experience of their web applications.
We’ll dive into both Silverlight 1.0 and 2.0 and show some of the development experience
using Visual Studio 2008.
