Out of sheer luck there I am the first guy saying "Hello" to Jeff and Robert as they exited the "PDC bull pen" room and went out into the hallway. (At 1:45 in the first video.) I can be heard calling out, "Thanks for posting my video on Channel 9!" That video was ScottGu's in-depth demo of ASP.NET 2.0 that I filmed which posted a couple weeks ago:
http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=111252It's very cool when some of your own stuff makes it to C9. Looking forward to when the PDC Show Off videos come out. There are some good ones in the mix. I threw a couple into the ring there, one featuring two bedraggled developers who whip out a block of code to create bar codes. Another for my friend Scott Cate which shows how he uses AJAX on his site. I hope they're well-received when they hit. And I also hope that not too much is lost during the recompression to make it Internet-friendly at 300kbps!
Also cool to see the gadget guy (didn't catch his name... Dean something?) show his high def camera, the Sony HC1 at around 16:15 on the first video. I've got one also, and I agree that WMV-HD is great for distributing HD content. Glad that the new HD-DVD decks will directly support it. Bought my cam in Japan back in June, the first week it was released over there. Been a fun ride experimenting with it.
Long live Channel 9!
