• ASP.NET Connections Slides + Demos

  Earlier this week I presented at the ASP.NET Connections conference in Las Vegas. This is a great conference that is held twice a year (the fall show is in Las Vegas, the spring show is in Orlando). This past week we had over 1,500 attendees for the ASP.NET conference alone, and more than 4,700 total for all of the DevConnections conferences held in parallel (VS, SQL, SharePoint, Mobile and Office Connections are all held in the same place - with attendees allowed to attend any session). I presented an overview keynote to everyone at the conference on the opening night, and then three ASP.NET specific talks: ASP.NET AJAX Keynote This talk kicked off the first full day of the conference, and provided an overview of our ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 plans...

• IIS7, ASP.NET 2.0, Atlas and VS 2005 End to End Talk

  Many thanks to everyone in New Zealand who attended my "ASP.NET: End-to-End - Building a Complete Web Application Using ASP.NET 2.0, Visual Studio 2005, and IIS7 (Parts 1 and 2)" talk this afternoon. You can download the slides from my talk here . You can then download the application I built here (note: this .zip file is actually the version I published after the US TechEd, but is the same code I wrote on stage today). There is a "ReadMe.txt" file in the root of the demos .zip file that walksthrough how to setup the demos. I've included two versions of the app -- one is in the "IIS7" directory and allows you to run the application using IIS7 on Windows Vista Beta2. The other is a slightly modified version of the sample that also works on IIS5... Posted Aug 21 2006, 05:15 AM by ScottGu's Blog : Atlas Filed under: ASP.NET, Atlas, Talks, IIS7, Visual Studio

• My ASP.NET 2.0 Tips, Tricks, Recipes and Gotchas "Highlights Page"

  Several people have sent me email lately asking for a suggested short-list of my best/favorite past blog posts to read (I’ve done 200 posts over the last 12 months and apparently it takes too long to read them all <g>). I’ve put together a summary page of ASP.NET 2.0 Tips, Tricks, Recipes and Gotchas that you can check out here . It currently contains links to 37 posts that I’ve done in the past that I think are interesting and worth spending sometime to read. I’ve organized the list by area topic (UI, Data, Security, Visual Studio, etc). My goal is to post at least 1-2 new/original ASP.NET Tips/Tricks/Recipes to my blog each week going forward. I’ll also make sure to update the summary page above as I add...

• Atlas “How Do I?” Video Series Begins

  Earlier this spring we published a really popular series of short, focused, online ASP.NET videos that we called the “How Do I?” series. The series walked through how to use Visual Web Developer to take advantage of the cool new ASP.NET 2.0 features like Master Pages, Membership, Role Management, Profiles, 3-tier Data Access, Themes, Web Parts, etc. If you haven’t watched these videos yet, I'd highly recommend setting aside an hour or two to review them all (each video is only 10-15 minutes long). They are a really great way to quickly obtain a very good understanding of the new ASP.NET 2.0 features and how they all fit together. You can watch each video online for free here . The series was so popular that we asked Joe... Posted Jul 27 2006, 10:40 PM by ScottGu's Blog : Atlas Filed under: ASP.NET, Atlas, Talks

• My TechEd Talk Now Available for Download

  Many thanks to the 1200+ people who showed up to my TechEd breakout talk today. I had a blast and hope you did too. As promised, you can now download the slides from my talk here . And you can download my demos here . There is a "Readme.txt" file in the root of the demos .zip file that walks through how to setup the demos. I have included two versions of the app I built from scratch today -- one is in the "IIS7" directory and allows to you run the application using IIS7 (and use all of the features I showed today -- including URL Rewriting). The other is a slightly modified version of the sample that also works on IIS5, IIS6 and the built-in VS 2005 Web-Server. It doesn't use Url-Rewriting -- but the other core features I used are all there... Posted Jun 15 2006, 07:52 PM by ScottGu's Blog : Atlas Filed under: ASP.NET, Atlas, Talks, IIS7, Visual Studio

• Atlas Running against PHP

  One of the demos that got people (especially ones not currently using Microsoft technology) excited at the MIX conference a few weeks ago was a demo that Shanku did showing the Atlas Client-Script Libraries working within a PHP web app. The Atlas architecture easily allows this, and Atlas can be integrated into any existing server framework environment. Shanku just posted his Altas w/ PHP sample on his new blog, and you can check it out here . For pointers to other Atlas information please check out my previous post here .

• Pointers to Great ASP.NET Atlas Content

  http://atlas.asp.net is the best place to visit to learn more and download the latest Atlas CTP Release (which now supports Go-Live deployments). If you haven't had a chance to dive into Atlas yet, you might want to set aside 18 minutes to watch this "How do I" video on the Atlas home-page that walks through how to build a Todo Task List using Atlas from scratch (I type everything in from scratch - including creating the database, building a DAL layer using typed tableadapters , then creating a filtered, sortable, pagable, inline editable task list UI w/ Ajax updates). It shows off the power of ASP.NET 2.0 and Atlas in building smooth, user-friendly, web experiences -- as well as how easy it is. I also have an intro to Atlas presentation w/...
