Hey all,
Just attended the Microsoft Public Sector Developer Conference. It was really good. I guess since I have been using 2008 since beta bits came out I had stopped realizing all the great functionality that came out of it. The begging of the day is pretty power point intensive and not really great at showing the goods, but informative non the less. The following demos were really good. Marc does a great job of making the hard look easy. It has to be grueling to deal with a bunch of devs for that long. But he continued to put on a great show even even with the normal demo failures with ease. Great job.
It never seems to amaze me how much great free training Microsoft give out. It really keeps my interest peaked.
Great job team! A Pic of Marc Schweigert Taking the time to give the heads up to a dev. The team was great at answering question before during and after the event. You cant beat the price FREE!
