WF 4.0: A First Look | pdc2008

Programs coordinate work. The code for coordination and state management often obscures a program's purpose. Learn how programming with Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) 4.0 provides clarity of intent while preserving the functional richness of the .NET framework. See how easy it is to build workflows with the new Visual Studio workflow designer. Learn about text-based authoring options for WF. Hear how WF integrates well with other Microsoft technologies (WCF, WPF, ASP.NET). If you've looked at WF before, come and see the changes to data flow, composition, and new control flow styles. Significant improvements to usability, composability, and performance make Workflow a great fit for a broad range of solutions on both the client and the server.

Great talk! Where do I get the WF theme you're using?

The cup, please say it was because of a medical probably you have. I can't help it but I started logging your frequency of cup reaching and drinking. It was extremely distracting.

I am only 1/4 of the way through and so far the content is good, but I am so distracted by your cup runs.
