ASP.NET Whidbey Cool Tips and Tricks Talk Coming Along
I was a bad person and just started working on my Cool Tips and Tricks talk for the PDC this week. My official reason for waiting was that I was holding off working on content until the other 18 ASP.NET Whidbey talks were done -- so that I could make sure to avoid any duplication of content. For those who have never been to one of my tips and tricks talks before, the basic structure I use is a slide/demo/slide/demo format. The emphasis is on cool stuff that can you can easily put into most applications.

ASP.NET Whidbey Blog Controls at PDC
Nikhil and Andrew Lin have been working on some cool new Blogging controls for Whidbey in preparation for Nikhil's Building ASP.NET Server Controls talks at the PDC (WSV 401 and WSV 402). Specifically, they are building a BlogDataSource control that demonstrates how to write a new ASP.NET Whidbey DataSource control (which will mean that any standard ASP.NET control will be able to declaratively databind against it -- no code required), as well as a BlogEntryView control that enables easy creation and editing of blog entries (including a cool out of band server callback scenario for spell checking).

Screenshots of ASP.NET Whidbey
Several folks have pinged me asking for screenshots of my keynote demo (http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/32007) to see what the final output looked like. Below is a quick walkthrough of the various steps. Apologies for the weird screen-color on a few of them (apparently alt-print screen and MS Paint doesn't always handle the pallete correctly!). Click each image to see a full-size version.

It was a busy last 24 hours at ASP.NET Connections -- 5 breakout talks, 1 night-time panel, and the keynote this morning. I just flew back to Seattle a few hours ago and am totally beat.

How you can get PDC material without going to the PDC...
One of the things we are planning on doing from the ASP.NET + Visual Studio Web Development side it to post all of our PDC talks+demo code, along with our Hands On Labs, and two Whidbey whitepapers on the http://www.asp.net website.

Busy Week Prepping for the PDC
There are times when I have to admit that I'm glad the PDC isn't every year -- because frankly getting ready for it is exhausting work. ;-)

Just finished an Interview for .NET Rocks
Carl Franklin and Mark Dunn called me for a phone interview for their .NET Rocks series today. We ended up spending the whole time talking about ASP.NET Whidbey (our V2.0 release), during which I gave a few previews of some of the things we are doing. I only spilled the beans on about 2% of the overall feature set, but hopefully enough to be interesting and tantalizing....
