I got a chance to attend Microsoft Innovation Days event at Le Meridien Hotel, Kochi on May 30,2008. Microsoft Innovation Days are day-long free events which offer an inspiring and productive day of technology previews, resources, and business benefits that will keep us competitive and help us to energize and maximize our technology.
Some of the key topics covered were:
1. Building Rich Internet Applications Using Silverlight 2.0 by Nahas Mohammed, Microsoft
Siverlight2.0 virtual vehicle gallery demo by Jim Mangaly, IdentityMine
2. Building high performance .NET applications by Harish Ranganathan, Microsoft
3. LINQ: Working with data naturally! by Harish Ranganathan, Microsoft
4. Getting the Best from SQL Box: Performance Tuning SQL Server by Praveen Srivastava, Microsoft
In that our company (IdentityMine) got a 30 minutes slot to share our experience using Silverlight 2.0, Since IdentityMine has been into this technology for more than a year and IdentityMine also did some Silverlight 1.0 training at Mumbai and Bangalore in last December which had a wonderful developer, designer audience from various companies around India.
At the end of Building Rich Internet Applications Using Silverlight 2.0 by Nahas Mohammed, my colleague Jim Mangaly did a great presentation showcasing a virtual vehicle gallery demo application developed in Silverlight 2.0. This was not a fully fledged application, which was created in a week's time. It include most of the highlighted features of Silverlight 2.0 like: Databinding, Templates, Animations, Drag and Drop, Video Brush, Isolated Storage, Video Markers etc.. He explained some of our experiences working with Silverlight, including the Developer-Designer workflow, also showed some other samples too.
There was 200 plus developer, designer audience from various companies around Kerala, all were impressed with Jim Mangaly’s presentation.
