A few announcements for those in the UK

Monday, March 8, 2010

[In addition to blogging, I am also now using Twitter for quick updates and to share links. Follow me at: twitter.com/scottgu]

This a quick post to announce a few upcoming events for those in the UK.

I’ll be presenting in Glasgow, Scotland on March 25th

I’m doing a free 5 hour presentation in Glasgow on March 25th. I’ll be covering VS 2010, ASP.NET 4, ASP.NET Web Forms 4, ASP.NET MVC 2, Silverlight and potentially show off a few new things that haven’t been announced yet.

You can learn more about the event and register for free here. There are only a few spots left – so register quickly.

When the event fills up there will be a wait-list – please add yourself to this as we’ll be encouraging people who won’t be able to attend to let us know ahead of time so that we can add more people to the event.

I’ll be presenting in Birmingham, England on March 26th

I’m doing a free 5 hour presentation in Birmingham (UK) on March 26th. I’ll be covering VS 2010, ASP.NET 4, ASP.NET Web Forms 4, ASP.NET MVC 2, Silverlight and also potentially show off a few new things that haven’t been announced yet.

You can learn more about the event and register for free here.

The event unfortunately filled up immediately (even before I had a chance to blog it) – but there is a waitlist. If you’d like to attend please add yourself to it as hopefully a number of people will be able to attend off of it.

UK Party at MIX

If you are going to MIX and are from the UK send mail to phil@pixelprogramming.com (or tweet him @plip) for an invite to a party being organized for UK MIX attendees next Tuesday (March 16th). Knowing the people involved I’m sure the party will be fun. <g>

Cool MIX10 iPhone App

Speaking of MIX (and UK developers), Chris Hardy has posted a cool new MIX10 iPhone application on the Apple AppStore. The free application helps track sessions, rooms, etc. You can learn more about it from Chris’ blog post here. The app works for everyone – not just those from the UK. :-)

Hope this helps,

Scott

and when are you planning to come to INDIA to give a session. India is the second biggest developer place so you should really plan to come here and give a session. It would be joy to see your session live.

We are going to your Glasgow talk, can't wait.
Fancy a game of bowling at lunch, its right next door to the venue? We'll pay.
The guys would love it!

Scott Gu, I'm not having a go at you, and realise it's probably not under your control. But it would be nice to announce fair UK pricing for the Visual Studio 2010 versions AND have a fair exchange rate that's not just $1 = £1. We've been ripped off in the UK in the past with a VS2008 that cost £800 while the US version is $800, or £530. I believe the MSDN subscription prices still use the $1 = £1 exchange rate. Are there any plans to change this?

Hi Scott,

We are located in the Netherlands and we think that you should do these valuable talks in the Netherlands as well.

I hope to see your next talk in the Netherlands.

Thanks.
