Mix 08 WPF Scheduling Application
Mar 5th
Mix 08 seems to be much more mature than ever before. In previous years there were a lot of ideas being spoken about; this year there are much more implementations of those ideas available to look at. It seems like a lot of people have been working on the new technologies over the past year or so. Hopefully that will lead to the ripening of many technologies (especially WPF) to a point where we can actually use them.
As an example, there is a scheduling application available for Mix. Unfortunately it only runs on Vista, but I captured a video and made a few screenshots for you.
This is the opening screen, with an agenda for the 4 days of the event:

Mix 08 Online Presentations
Mar 4th
My favorite conference is about to start: MIX 08.
It’s a great conference for Microsoft developers with an interest in the web. Last year they had some great talks about user experience and architecture. There’s always something interesting to learn.
Unfortunately I can’t be there (as usual), but all the sessions will be online. Tim Sneath just posted details of where and when you can watch them:
- The keynote with Ray Ozzie, Scott Guthrie will be available live at 9:30am Pacific / 5:30pm GMT on three streams: 750kbps, 300kbps, 100kbps.
- The breakout sessions and panels will be online within 24 hours of each session at MIX08 sessions.
