Scott Guthrie: What's Coming for Mix, Part 2: Windows, Web, and RIA

Dan — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 15:52:46 GMT

In the second part of this two-part interview, Scott discusses how this year's Mix (http://visitmix.com/2008/) is going to be even larger than last year's, covering everything from Windows Presentation Foundation improvements to Web development frameworks including Dynamic Data and the MVC Framework, to dropping some hints about upcoming tooling support, and the major improvements in Silverlight 2.0.

You'll also hear Scott talk about the different needs of developers and designers with Expression, how he personally wrote the <asp:Calendar> control, the unique challenges in building controls and how XAML enables unmatched control composability.

HanselMinutes on 9 - #1 -

Rory — Wed, 28 Mar 2007 17:22:45 GMT

Scott Hanselman is a pretty well known guy around the .NET world for a bajillion reasons (reasons will not be listed here).

We decided to make it a bajllion and one reasons.

Scott has a podcast, produced by Carl Franklin of .NET Rocks fame, called HanselMinutes. It seems to be generally well liked, and Scott and I thought we'd borrow the branding for a series of short Channel 9 videos.

In this first series (yes: first - if you like it, we might do more), we walked around Polita Paulus, a dev on the ASP.NET team who is responsible for some well known things. We didn't know what to expect, as we were just going door to door, but we stumbled upon the dev who coded the GridView.

Yeah. We felt pretty lucky about that :)

Let us know what you think about this format. Another thing to note is that it's shorter than recent 9 videos. We've been seeing a lot of comments from viewers asking that we shorten them up. This one is just under 15 minutes long, so tell us what you think of that as well.

Polita Paulus - BLINQ

Meet Polita Paulus, software engineer who works on the ASP.NET team and wrote many of the data controls you use every day. She is also responsible for (she wrote it) a new ASP.NET technology known as BLINQ, which is a tool that enables ASP.NET developers to write LINQ queries (without knowing LINQ)! Cool stuff.
