One Brit off to Mix11
This time next week, I'll be on a plane heading over to Mix 11.
If you're heading there, then please get in touch, I'd love to talk to you about either Windows Phone 7, iPhone development with MonoTouch, Android development with Mono for Android as well as ASP.NET MVC, Umbraco, EPiServer and the like.
In case you didn't know, I work for Great Fridays over in the UK so take a look at the website to see what sort of work we do too and hopefully that'll start up a conversation.
Sessions!
With 123 sessions currently announced, there are lots of great sessions at Mix 11 this year, here are a selection of sessions you're not going to want to miss (or at least download them after the conference!).
Bootcamp - Silverlight Boot Camp
If you're going to be attending the Mix 11 bootcamp the day before the main event, then don't miss out on Mike Taulty and John Papa's session. Last year's bootcamp seemed like the most well received of them all and this year is probably going to be no different.
Bootcamp - Windows Phone 7 Boot Camp
Adam Kinney and Grant Hinkson are going to put on a great bootcamp on getting from file new project to submitting an app to the Marketplace with this bootcamp, again, if you're going to the boot camps then make sure you go to this one!
Mono: State of the Union
So the Mix team actually invited Miguel De Icaza back to talk about everything Mono. You don't want to miss this.
Scaffolding – ASP.NET, NuGet, Entity Framework Code First and More
Having seen Steven Sanderson speak at a few UK community events, this will be a great session. Author of arguably the best ASP.NET MVC book out there, Steven now works at Microsoft for the ASP.NET team.
Agile .NET Cloud-Deployment with Git
Michael Friis is going to be doing a session which ultimately is going to all be about AppHarbor.com. I have to say, AppHarbor is one of the most exciting things about deployment and ASP.NET for a long time, often referred to as the ".NET version of Heroku" or "Azure done right".
Of course, you can find all of the sessions listed here - Session List
Mix on your mobile
Last year at Mix 10, I helped Craig Dunn out with his iPhone application for the conference. This year, you can grab the Mix 11 application for both iPhone and Windows Phone 7.
