TSPUG November 19: SharePoint and Silverlight

Our next Toronto SharePoint Usergroup Meeting will take place next Wednesday, November 19, 2008.

This month’s speaker,  Sean Hopen (New Toronto Group), will give a tour of the development process with Silverlight and an overview of developing web parts for use in SharePoint. There will be a discussion of the benefits of using Silverlight in a SharePoint implementation.

To demonstrate Silverlight in action, Sean will show you how to create a web part that can be used by non-programmers to display a chart of data from any SharePoint list.

Sean has been developing software for the last 25 years and is now a Senior Consultant for the New Toronto Group.   He has lead development teams working on desktop-, client server-, and multi-tier internet applications for Health, Financial and Education sectors.  SharePoint development with a Silverlight focus is his current area of concentration.
