Jessi is Back! The CodeRoom In Las Vegas

One of the more "fun" things I got to do while Editor for TheServerSide.NET was to help publicize The Code Room, an online TV show that puts developers under pressure to use Microsoft's latest technologies to solve business problems.  Caught somewhere between documentary and marketing fluff, it's always fun and this episode looks to be no different.

The first episode starred a few friends of mine, Chris Menegay, Scott Bellware, and Tracy Sawyer but the biggest topic of discussion seemed to be the superhot host, Jessi Knapp.  Chris, Scott, and Tracy were given the task of developing a web based user interface to an online ordering system before their laptop battery died.  Unfortunately, they failed.  The second episode put several Windows Mobile developers into a fishbowl room at a busy Seattle mall to build a Smartphone based application with a SQL Server backend.  They were successful but sadly Jessi was missing from episode 2.

This episode centers on security and pits black hats against white hats in a battle to control a Las Vegas casino's player system and thereby millions of dollars.  And I'm happy to say that Jessi is back sporting a new 'Do and seductively using phrases like "SQL Injection" and "Brute Force".
