Upcoming Web Camps
We've got some great, free Web Camps headed your way!
Web Camps are free, fun, no-fluff events for developers, by developers. Show up for the day, leave infused with a crazy amount of web dev info. Did I mention these are free?
My teammate Brady Gaster has put together some phenomenal new content, and I'm really looking forward to presenting at some of these.

Oh, and I believe there's still room at the Web Camp in Brussels on May 3.
Web Camps Content
I've reviewed and contributed a bit to the Web Camps content that Brady's put together, and it's really, really good. There's a ton of information packed in. Here's an overview of the agenda (see the registration link for the exact agenda at each location):
- Welcome Back to the Microsoft Web Stack
- Integrating Your Site with Internet Explorer 9
- Top 10 Things You Didn't Know about WebMatrix 2
- Creating Rich HTML 5 Experiences
- Building Web Sites Using ASP.NET 4.5
- Building a Service Layer with ASP.NET Web API
- Deploying ASP.NET Apps to the Cloud
You can read more about those topic at http://www.devcamps.ms/web/agenda.
Infomercial!
Now if you're almost convinced, but on the edge, and you need a video to push you over the top, you watch Brady and me announcing the Web Camps tour on Web Camps TV a few weeks ago:
Yes, if you read my blog you'll have noticed that this video is a repeat. That's how infomercials work.
