Going to MIX08 next week ?

Thirteen23 has created a very nice MIX08 Schedule Management Application with WPF (so Vista only!) to help you create your own conference schedule, keep track of times, and browse all the sessions.

This is free and deployed via ClickOnce, cool!

As you know MIX07 will be at Las Vegas on April 30 - May 2nd this year.
I'm sure this would be the best conference for me, but can't afford to go there, bouuuuhhh :-(

If you feel like me, you'll be happy to know that you'll find lots of free content to download (Videos, Powerpoint, Demos, Hands-On Lab) about these topics :

Windows Presentation Foundation
ASP.NET AJAX
Gadgets
RSS
WPF /E

At this location:

Have fun!

Note: If you plan to go there lucky you, each attendee will get a Windows Vista Ultimate!

Hungry about Framework 3 ?
