Huddled Masses

Hopefully this is just a reminder to you that on April 1st, 2009, Microsoft is putting on TechDays, a free 24 hour virtual event covering dozens developer-related topics with speakers around the globe…

There will be around 100 live sessions provided via Live Meeting (and available afterward for watching on-demand) in five tracks:

• Windows Development and Frameworks
• Windows Mobile Development
• Office and SharePoint Development
• Developer Tools, Languages & Practices

• Web Development & User Experience

MS MVP Marco Shaw will be presenting the only session specifically covering Windows PowerShell: WIN300 Scripting the Microsoft .NET Framework Using Windows PowerShell.

Now that PowerShell is part of the Microsoft Common Engineering Criteria, expect to see more and more PowerShell in Microsoft server products. This session looks at how PowerShell can be used to directly access the .NET Framework. Some simple examples are demonstrated, but also more advanced examples of using Windows Presentation Foundation (.NET 3.0) and LINQ (.NET 3.5) are discussed.

In any case, the whole event is free, and you can participate from the comfort of your desk! It’s a FREE event, so you really shouldn’t miss it: you get a chance to win one of several MSDN Premium subscriptions, as well as some discounts on Certification Exams…
