Local MSDN Event in Virginia Beach
I just got back from a local MSDN/.NET event here in Virginai Beach. Not much, just a couple of hours of programing talk on “line of business applications in ASP.NET” and “ASP.NET Security”. More of an overview of good programming practices than anything in-depth, but a refresher is always nice.
Held in a nice comfortable theater, there were two tracks and two sessions each. What impressed me the most however, was the atmosphere of the whole thing. For a free event, they still went out the their way to make it enjoyable and comfortable. Free muffins and bagels, a coupon for free popcorn and soda, a raffle (with a PocketPC I didn't win) and a little goodie back that would be a nice little breifcase since I don't carry a laptop or much else.
At any rate, worth a trip if they come to a town near you. (Mind you, I wouldn't travel too far) Good indication that DevDays will be an enjoyable event as well.
