Using NuPack with MonoDroid
In case you haven't heard, the Outercurve Foundation released an early CTP1 version of NuPack, a package management system for .Net. This project allows for other projects and their dependencies to be added directly into an application. This alleviates the need to go searching around the web to figure out where a project is, what dependencies it needs, what version is support for which version of the framework, NuPack will take care of this for you. It will also let you know if there's an update available for that project too. More information can be found about NuPack here.

Norwegian Developers Conference 2010 - Aftermath
First of all - NDC 2010 rocked. I had a great time over in Oslo, which despite being super expensive is also wonderfully beautiful. The conference was wonderfully well put together and had a great time meeting plenty of familiar faces as well as many other new faces.

Developer Developer Developer Scotland 2010
This past weekend, I headed up to Glasgow thanks to Plip for driving and Dave Sussman for some light entertainment to do a session on C# on the iPhone with MonoTouch. I had already presented a session similar to this one at DDD8 in Reading, which you can watch on Vimeo (http://vimeo.com/9150434) but in this session I covered more topics such as the new 3.3.1 section of the new terms of service Apple released. I also showed a Twitter example written in MonoTouch, which was reused from the DDD8 session again. This example can be found on GitHub (http://github.com/chrisntr/MonoTouch-Twitter-Example). My slides looked a little bit like this...

Mix10 iPhone App is Live!
Hello All,

Mix10 iPhone App is coming!
In just over two weeks from now, Mix 10 will be kicking off at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas and no doubt there will be a lot of interesting content with Silverlight 4, VS2010 and Windows Phone 7 Series all around the corner. Something that I always find hard to do when I'm at a conference is to keep up to date with what sessions are on now and what session I want to attend. Sure, you could always print of the schedule but this isn't great when sessions get updated or move around. This is where the MIX10 iPhone application comes in handy! For those who have a keen eye - you might have spotted a sneaky preview of the application on Miguel's blog - http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2010/Feb-23.html.

My MonoTouch session at DDD8
Yesterday (Saturday 30th January 2010) was the 8th Developer Developer Developer conference held at the Microsoft offices in Reading, UK. I won't go in to detail about the event but suffice to say - it was amazing! Well put together, great sponsors, great organizers, great speakers and most importantly great attendees. It was good to meet some new faces and plenty of old too. In case you didn't catch me at my session or about the conference then here's what I looked like... needless to say I'm not Dave Sussman but the emo kid on the left.
