Tell your friends! On July 7th and 8th, the Hampton Roads .NET Users Group is hosting it’s first major event. We’re lucky to have David Makogon leading us in a 2-day Azure Boot Camp. If you’ve been looking at Azure as an option for developing next generation web application, then this event is not to be missed!
And this event is 100% FREE OF CHARGE! All you have to do is show up!
If you’re like me, and you’ve been waiting for an update to the Windows Phone 7 developer tools, you’re in luck! They were released yesterday!
My major grip about the first release was that I *had* to install Visual Studio 2010 Express. I have nothing against the express tools, and I think they’re awesome if you’re a hobbyist developer with a low budget. Express does everything the regular versions do, with exceptions. However, I have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate… why should I have to install Express as well.
The Windows Phone 7 Developer Refresh actually doesn’t fix the need for Express. What it does add is support for the templates inside of Visual Studio 2010, if you have another version installed. The only annoyance you’ll see is that you have Start menu items for both Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Studio 2010 Express.
Everything seems to be working fine from my end, so I suggest you go and get it today!
