December 11th Meeting

Silverlight 2

In this month's installment we have the opportunity to talk all about Silverlight 2. Silverlight carries the .NET programming model beyond the desktop and server; now you can bring dynamic, powerful features to a variety of web browsers, platforms, and devices. With Silverlight you can certainly "light up the web" with rich, interactive content, brilliant animations, and exciting, dynamic displays.

In this session we'll talk about Silverlight (version 2 specifically) and Expression Blend 2. We'll see how they work together to help developers be productive and work with designers to create great content.

Date: Thursday, December 11th, 2008
Time: 6:00 PM
Place: Neumont University 3rd Floor (10701 South River Front Parkway, South Jordan)

  • Party Role and Party Type in Data Model

    Yesterday's post dealt with Len Silverston's Party Role model and how to take it to a physical model using ER/Studio. After re-reading the post, I realized that while a party may have a role that distinguishes it as a person rather than an organization such as "Employee," a party might also have a role that is indistinguishable such...

  • From Len Silverston's Party Role Model to Physical Tables in ER/Studio

    A central theme in my current work is the idea of a universal data model. Research in this direction led to noted author and consultant Len Silverston and his work on the subject which led to licensing ER/Studio and Len's models from Embarcadero . Soon after that, we invited Len to our offices to help us better understand his approach to data models...

  • .NET Framework Source Code to the Rescue

    On Tuesday I got a call up from a developer that was dealing with an unusual ASP.NET problem and was looking for some help. I am not an expert with ASP.NET at all, but we booted up in a Shared View session to look at the problem (that had been stopping him for the better part of a day or two at that point). He had sub-classed a dropdown list and was...

  • Dabbleboard and Naked Objects for .NET

    I've recently been looking for simpler and more effective tools for collaborating with geographically distributed teams. The first order of business is to find something better than a whiteboard that can be shared amongst multiple users. After some brief searching, I found Dabbleboard at www.dabbleboard.com . This gem was just recently launched...
