RE: [OzSilverlight] yo

2007-09-26 Thread Ola Karlsson
Well, while we're doing the rounds.

Another semi lurker here,

In short, a Swede who got lost and somehow found myself on the other side of 
the globe ;)
 I'm currently working with asp.NET development for a semi big development shop 
in Perth WA.

As Nick, I think the BIG thing about Silverlight is the possibility of running 
managed code in a browser, hence I'm not too fussed about 1.0 but I'm really 
looking forward to what the future holds in regards to Silverlight 1.1 J

Catch you all later,
Ola

I'm a User Interface Developer using WPF at the moment (and loving it!!) so I 
have an interest in Silverlight.

So which Microsoftie should I draw next? I've just been to the Big King Street

Oh, while I'm thinking of it, has anyone tried to write a Facebook App using

while we're off topic, is anyone aware of any dedicated wpf lists? a

Hi

Let's see:

I'm from Brisbane, Australia.
I'm a tech author and a former elearning LMS/CMS developer.
I've spent a few years away from Microsoft stuff but got interested again at
Remix in Melbourne (which was strange cos I thought I was a Rails convert).
The C# vs Javascript chess demo got me interested in Machine Learning
applications using Silverlight.
I hope to be writing tutorials as I get into Silverlight.

yeah i' have seen quite a few people talking about wpf books, not yet
had the chance to pick one up.

part of me thinks the lack of documentation (specially code-focused as
opposed to xaml-focused) is part of a conspiracy to sell more books :P

Not sure if there's a point to everyone introducing themselves. because
personally I've already forgetten all but the last 2 posters.

 

Anyway for the sake of completing the circle.

Web dev ASP.NET doing Business Intelligence and Performance Management for
Zap Technology in Brisbane.

Kicking off next version in .Net 3.5, VS2008, and hopefully TFS2008 (if
Chuck responds to my email).

I like SilverLight because of the sh!t fight it kicks up with Adobe, not for
any functional reason.

I'm currently developing a SL game based on Adam's 2D physics engine (he's
posted about it before).

 

I also like long walks on the beach, trips to the zoo, and holding hands.

Non-Microsofty here, but I have done a bunch of cartoons of Microsofties
(with some more planned when I get some free time). 

 

I'm a User Interface Developer using WPF at the moment (and loving it!!) so
I have an interest in Silverlight.


So which Microsoftie should I draw next? I've just been to the Big King
Street draw (yesterday) so i'm all fired up about cartooning. :)
 

Oh, while I'm thinking of it, has anyone tried to write a Facebook App using
Silverlight? I heard some web dev guys talking about being able to do stuff
in iframes so that made me start wondering...

 

cheers,

Hi!

 

I am a non-Microsoftian although I wanna be one someday! J

 

I work at the Australian Taxation Office in Canberra as the Change Manager,
Technical Tester and Project Manager in the Middleware and Common Services
team. For those Microsofties out there, that's the same team which
contributed to a lot of feedback to the development of the .Net Framework 1
and 2!!

 

Unfortunately Microsoft keeps stealing our staff, for example, Tom
Hollander, Rocky Heckman, etc which is why I have to do some many different
roles.

 

 

Regards,

Eric

Just wanted to say hey, everyone. My name's Samuel Wan, and I've been a
program manager on Expression Blend for 4 years (basically, a long time
before it shipped). I heard about this list from an internal thread that
Scott sent around. It's nice to find a less crowded mailing list with a
good signal-to-noise ratio.

And a welcome to Sam from Phoenix, Arizona!
 
Scott... I didn't put it together until I read this post that you are 
MossyBlog... I'm obviously familiar with your site... 
 
When are you going to leak out what SilverlightCoders is all about???

Sam welcome to the fold :P and the list is going for gold ;P

I was wondering if other fellow Microsoftians could do a sound off (name, rank 
and brief background) so that others may get similiar perspective to what Sam 
just outlined.

(FYI: Sam forgot to mention he was also one of the demi-god Flash gurus back in 
the day, and from memory wrote the first book on Flash OOP with Branden Hall 
"OOP for ActionScript" ).
