Session 8: "Creating WP7 Apps that work offline" with Andrej Radinger

"To ensure the best experience for mobile users, apps built for Windows Phone 7 must implement an occasionally-connected pattern of development that Silverlight developers for the other platforms may find unfamiliar. In this session, learn how to build mobile apps that adjust their behaviour based on changing network conditions. Also learn how to conquer unreliable wireless networks by implementing RESTful principles to ensure your messages are both compact and fast. Then take those WCF REST services and use them to retrieve database tables, rows, and columns in order to drive the behaviour of your mobile applications. Finally, learn how to cache data to Isolated Storage to ensure that your Windows Phone apps keep working regardless of network conditions."

For the first time, Microsoft offers free tools to develop applications for Windows Phone. To get the most out of your day-to-day work, it is important to understand the different capabilities of the different tools. This sample-filled session explains when to use Microsoft Expression Blend and when to use Microsoft Visual Studio, from a software development perspective. Also shown are how both tools operate together to create captivating applications for Windows Phone 7. Finally, the session explains the added value that you, as a developer, will get when using Visual Studio 2010 Professional."

]]> http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/Eric+Nelson/MSDN-Flash-Podcast-008--using-XAF-to-build-WebForm-and-WinForm-applications This podcast is an interview with Gary Short in which we discuss the DevExpress eXpressApp Framework™ (XAF) for quickly building WebForm and WinForm applications. Along the way we manage to mention testing frameworks, home-grown source control, rabbits feet, British Rail and Microsoft Access (Apologies in advance to the Access User Group) but most of it is about understanding what XAF is and when you would use it.

On this site, you can read news and blogs, watch videos, get eco-friendly tips, plus get access to tools like a carbon calculator and a water usage meter. The site is only on MSN UK (for the U.S., we have MSN Green instead), but there are certainly features on the site that will appeal to everyone interested in these issues.

If you want to follow various sections of MSN Environment, there are several RSS feeds to choose from, including:

  • Environment Blog: Matthew Yeomans is the co-founder of Custom Communication an online media consultancy that provides environmental reporting. He reports for MSN on The Climate Report blog.
  • Environment Features: All the feature stories from MSN Environment Editor including analysis.
  • Environment Photos: All the photo stories from MSN Environment Editor including analysis.
  • Environment News: Updated throughout the day with breaking and feature news stories
  • Environment Videos: Stand alone features from VideoJug

Introduction: In a previous video (part 1), you learnt how to get started with the Managed AddIn Framework (MAF). This video is part 2 and relies on knowledge gained in part 1. In this video you will learn how to enable a v1 AddIn to work with a v2 Host and hence you will see the true value of the MAF pipeline. The code is available from my blog.

Introduction: The Managed AddIn Framework (MAF) is a set of assemblies that are part of .NET Framework v3.5. They offer a platform for developers to build extensibility into their client applications by enabling addins (aka plugins) to be written for a host. In this 18' video you will learn how to use the MAF. The code is available from my blog.
