How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
It's always fun to talk to
Scott Guthrie, VP of all things .NET and one of Microsoft's most prolific technical bloggers (he actually writes all of the entries on his blog which is quite a feat given his schedule and time constraints as a corporate Vice President). Many of you have
seen his keynotes over the years, which are always among the most popular and highest rated by conference attendees. It's no surprise that he will again headline at MIX this year. Wonder what he'll be
talking about? We discuss this here (and he addresses what it's like to speak in front of a large audience - for people who know Scott, he's actually kind of shy. How nervous is he, anyway, when he steps on to the grand stage?). We also touch on Silverlight
3, the next iteration of the media streaming and web client managed platform Scott and team create. But we step back, too. How is Silverlight doing out there, anyway? Both developers and designers use the tools that Scott and team create. How's the Scott's
vision of the developer-designer workflow working in reality?
Tune in. This is another insightful conversation with one of Microsoft's best.

ooo im definitly looking forward to those coding sessions, both with scott and others
i know its a bit of a long shot but will there be any hints before mix about the tpl/paralellism stuff? its been a while sice we heard something from joe duffy and the guys
Between Silverlight and ASP.NET MVC we feel much more comfortable with working with the Microsoft stack for web development!
We've written a full Silverlight 2 RIA for collaboration called colaab, check it out at:

Will Task Parallel Library be available as part of SilverLight #? base library?
However, unless Scott has another blog as well as http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu I don't think he could be described as "one of Microsoft's most prolific technical bloggers". Perhaps in the past, but certainly not now. His blogs are always informative and useful but the frequency is pretty low compared to other Microsoft bloggers. No doubt because he is extremely busy getting the stuff that we need released.
Praise where it is due. Channel 9 is a great resource and I hope it continues to grow but it shouldn't become sycophantic towards those that provide the products.
Thank you. Have we become too product focused? We're always seeking feedback. When we venture into blowhard marketing babble, please do call us out. In this case, Scott and I laughed at the fact that he was sounding a bit like a MIX09 infomercial. That said, there's plenty of good info in this piece that is not at all marketing.
Help us fly the plane (remember that slogan for C9 v1?),

it may be my imagination but it seems like the rate of c9 videos has slowed down somewhat though :/ are you guys getting more secretive?
if i where to dig deep for feedback i'd wish for more even more user interaction with the interviews, with followups and such. i know the folks you're interiewing are really busy and dont have time to hang around watching the interview threads but perhaps someone in the c9 group could aggregate the comments and post the response from the interviewees as text posts in the thread
also some sort of schedule for upcoming interviews would really be cool
i do agree that scotts posts have become less frequent but the length of his posts are just crazy (crazy awsome that is) he does have alot on his plate and he has a baby now too
btw whatever happed to rory? at first i found him slightly anoying but now i kinda miss him
C
I noticed it too.
Could it be his new Vice-president shirt for executive meetings?
Watch out if he starts wearing ties!
