With assistance from Microsoft UK, Microsoft Ireland, Microsoft US and Microsoft User Group Services, the UK and Irish developer community are very excited to have Silverlight guru, Jesse Liberty, visiting our shores.
Jesse is the self-confessed Silverlight Geek and Community Program Manager for Microsoft US. He’s committed, like no other, to enhancing developers’ experiences with Silverlight, and with over two decades of experience, he has got a lot to share.
Jesse’s visit will coincide with Microsoft TechDays UK, which is being held in London from Monday April 12th through to Friday April 16th and will cover topics including UI design, Windows Phone development and of course Visual Studio 2010 and Silverlight. Jesse will be holding court on both the Monday and Tuesday. If you haven’t already registered for you free place at the event, head over now and grab one of the few remaining places.
Being one of the sometime volunteers for Cambridge NxtGenUG, held at the resplendent Microsoft Research building in Cambridge UK, I am very excited to say that we’ll be hosting Jesse on Wednesday April 14th for a session that will include open source application development, TDD, MEF and RIA Services … we are going to be busy!
Jesse has blogged about his visit to the UK and Ireland, and the details of all of the groups that he will be visiting can be found on his blog. Suffice to say, if you live near any of the following cities I can’t recommend strongly enough that you register for a place at one of these groups to see Jesse speak:
This really is a great opportunity for all Silverlight enthusiasts, novice or obsessive. Find your nearest group and for goodness sake register to attend one of Jesse’s sessions. Maybe I’ll see you in Cambridge!
