I'm back at the loud brewery with Visual Basic MVP, Rob Windsor, chatting about how he got started with Visual Basic, how his applications evolved over the years, and some of the coolest applications he's built. You can hear the beer glasses clinking around at this MVP party but I think I caught Rob before we started drinking too much Wink

. Check out Rob's MVP bio and blog.

About the “I’m a VB” Interview series:
Who’s the “typical VB.NET developer”? Is there one? There are millions of VB.NET developers in the world, and they each have their own unique story. We decided to talk to some of them to find out what kinds of applications they’re building, what technologies they’re using, and what their favorite features are. Watch the interviews and find out for yourself who today's VB.NET developers really are!
