[PDC'05] Pretty good start

So, the pre-conference session (Building .NET Web Services Today with .NET 2.0 and WSE 3.0)  with Aaron Skonnard just ended, and it was pretty good. It didn't contain so much new stuff or wasn't as deep level as I thought it was going to be, but Aaron is a good speaker and I learned a couple of new things about WSE 3.0.

Aaron spent almost 2/3 of the day on basic WS stuff that I think most people in the room might already know about, but these are pre-conf sessions so I guess they have to be a bit basic.

Aaron did lots of coding (yay) and one funny thing was when he was going to create a demo with a web service returning datasets (which he claimed was evil). First he named the web service class 'dataset', then realized that it wasn't a very good name, so he changed it into 'webservice' which isn't that much better :) He just laughed and put a '1' after it and went ahead.

Now we're off to see some parts of Hollywood I think...
