• ReMIX Sessions from Amsterdamn

  Sorry for being so quiet lately, things have been a little nutty, but in a good way. We've been pretty heads down working on all kinds of fun stuff, the next version of IE, the next version of Expression Web and getting ready to launch Visual Studio 2008. I'm really excited to see that one ship. I worked on it for almost a year before I transitioned to this role, and I know almost all the folks on the team, and am amazed at what they've pulled off! I just got an email from Mariet, who was the primary coordinator of the ReMIX sessions in Europe this spring. All of the sessions in Amsterdam were video taped, and are now available online! So if you didn't make it to MIX or ReMIX, you can see some of the sessions, myself included on the ReMIX website...

• ReMIX: Search Engine Optimization For Rich Internet Applications

  I think that this was my favorite session I did while doing all my ReMIX presentations. It was the one I found most interesting, and most relevant to the work that I do, and see many web developers and designers doing every day. I'm not sure if there is video for this session, but if it shows up, I'll be sure to link to it. In the mean time, I've included the slides for you to check out, and I'll try to get a blog post out about in the next week or two summarizing the info in the deck. Read More...

• ReMIX: Using Visual Studio 2008, codenamed Orcas

  I presented this session both in Amsterdam and in Zürich, though I managed to lose my notes in Zürich and had do to a number of the demo's by the seat of my pants which was a bit of a challenge. In any event, it was based on a session by Omar Khan of the VWD team that he presented at MIX07, called " Using Visual Studio Codename Orcas to Design And Devloper Rich AJAX Enable Web Sites " Read More...

• Web Blunders: The Top 5 Biggest Mistakes On The Web

  At TechEd this year, I presented a session where I presented my top five pet peeves on the web, the biggest and easiest problems to avoid on the web. With how easy it is to share content on the web, I felt that these top five things were the best and easiest to get rid of. In order, I felt they were: 5. Unprofessional Site Design 4. Lousy Content 3. Poorly coded HTML/CSS/JavaScript 2. Inappropriate use of Rich Content 1. Not Being POSH I've attached my slides below, so check them out, and let me know what your pet peeves are!

• TechEd & ReMIX

  What a great couple of weeks, and it's not over yet! In the last two weeks, I've been to Orlando, Budapest, and Amsterdam, and I'm headed off to Zurich on Sunday. I've got some down time today and tomorrow before two more full days in Zurich. I've learned a lot, seen some fantastic things, and met some really great people. TechEd 2007 - Orlando I started TechEd off in Orlando a little early as some of my friends were going to be down there for a few parties and other events that were going on so I figured I'd join them. It was a great way to start the trip and great to see my friends, and meet some new folks. Kind of crazy, and a lot of fun. TechEd itself was pretty great. We got to meet lots of cool folks, and the presentations that the IE... Posted Jun 15 2007, 12:25 PM by PeteL's Blog : share Filed under: web design, Mix07, conferences, presentations, share

• reMIX 07 and serEstandar.es

  With MIX07 just behind us, there are some fun events coming up in Europe, Asia and else where in the world. REMIX 07 is an opportunity to for people who didn't or couldn't make it to Vegas to see some of the great sessions and events that took place at MIX. But what I like about reMIX is that I get to do a couple of the sessions, and maybe even a keynote. The sessions are still being locked down, but there is a live site with a bunch of the information at http://www.microsoft.com/emea/msdn/visitremix/inde... I'm currently planning on heading to: Budapest, Hungary Amsterdam, Netherlands Zurich, Switzerland I'm also heading to Seville at the end of June for serEstandar.es . The site is in Spanish, which I can't really read, but I can tell you... Posted May 14 2007, 02:53 PM by PeteL's Blog : share Filed under: Microsoft, IE, Mix07, conferences, presentations, share

• MIX07 Recap (It's Over)

  Wow, just wow, that's all I really need to say. MIX07 was insane, an absolute great time, and some fantastic new stuff coming out from Microsoft for the web. So what were the highlights, for me it came down to three things, first the announcements around Silverlight, second was all the great sharing we got to do about IE, and third, was meeting some fantastic people. I didn't really get a chance to blog while I was at MIX this year, which I wish I had, but we were all so busy, attending sessions, hanging out, hearing what you had to say, eating drinking and being merry. IE As Chris mentioned on the IE Blog , we didn't have anything to announce this year at MIX, we were there to listen, and provide some information. Chris's IE session was standing...

• IE, Firefore and Opera On Stage Together

  I often forget to blog about some of the cool events I attend until it's a little too late, but hey, better than blogging about it after the fact, when people can't even try to show up right? Tomorrow, Chris Wilson and I are headed down to San Jose for an event put on by the Silicon Valley Web Builders for a session that they're calling Browser Wars: Episode II Attack of the DOMs . Beside the name being something that bugs me a bit, this is going to be a fantastic event! This is one of the few times that Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera have been on stage together to talk about where the web goes next, and what their visions are for the future. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by what Chris has to say. Chris and I sat down on Monday...
