I'll definately be checking out the customizer thing, I would love it if VS emulated the way Blend looks! Rat brained robots is a little weird.
I read this thing about Unit 371 (I think - a Japanese experiment similar to the Názi experiments) where they kept a dogs head alive.. this reminded me of that, I suppose it's sortof in reverse
Awesome show, as usual. First time I've been able to comment though!
It was really awesome to be part of the show. I hope I can join another time again
I couldn't agree more, my personal wish is that they unite the WPF designer teams so that VS gets all the niceties of Expression Blend rather than having to jump from one product to another to get things like IntelliSense and statement completion versus better designers, better resource support, etc
fx 3.5 sp1 and VSsp1 are amazing so far. Astoria, new web services, Entity framework, designers, Dynamic Data, sql 2008 support, and the list goes on. I remember watching these things grow on C9 over the years, but having them all come together in this SP release is just amazing to see and finally have. Now I just need another 6 months to learn all this stuff... Great job MS and congrats!
Wulffmorgenthaler is from Denmark
The jokes are really really awesome.
I love them! Crakes me up each morning.
