Conference season is here again… the SharePoint Conference recently convened in Las Vegas with plenty of news about collaborating with SharePoint 2010. Next is Tech·Ed Europe which kicks of very soon in Berlin for which there are a couple of new and interesting products becoming public. Finally, we’ve got the PDC for which I know that the guys at Microsoft are particularly busy preparing for… I expect there will be lots of announcements at the PDC around web technologies and Visual Studio in particular (.NET4, VS2010, Azure…).
A lot of these events will have live video coverage (via a Silverlight player and IIS7 Streaming of course) so I’ve included links for you below to experience the conference from your desktop if you are not lucky enough to attend in person.
So, a little later in the calendar than expected due to conference season, the next Silverlight User Group evening will be…
