Thursday’s Silverlight presentation

by Mads Kristensen 21. October 2008 02:15

This Thursday, October 23rd, the Copenhagen .NET user group is throwing one kick-ass presentation for anyone interested. The theme is Silverlight 2.0 experiences for .NET developers and it’s going to blow you away. It’s not drag ‘n drop demos or a tutorial, but about the possibilities the new Silverlight version brings to ordinary .NET developers, presented by one of the most experienced Silverlight guys in Denmark.

The reason I’m looking forward to this talk so much is I’ve never really played that much with Silverlight and I want to see if the new version can be used for something cool in BlogEngine.NET and at ZYB. I’ve only seen one presentation of Silverlight back in the day and that was a bit boring with all the dragging and dropping of controls in Visual Studio. This will not be a presentation like that.

So, if you’re interested in coming along for the ride, be at Microsoft in Hellerup this Thursday at 4pm. It’s free and arranged by the Copenhagen .NET user group and people from the .NET community are going to be there. Check out www.cnug.dk for more info and remember to join the Facebook group.

What's the reason that an intelligent guy like you who've praised semantic web suddenly hypes Silverlight?

Because it might be very usefull for administrative pages such as the BlogEngine.NET admin section or parts of it. I've always wanted a Silverligt rich text editor.
