    MSDN Northeast Roadshow - November 8th, 2009

    Yesterday myself and Carl from the Boston area office attended the MSDN Northeast Roadshow stop in Waltham, MA for a good day of geeky goodness.  Chris Bowen and Jim O'Neil from Microsoft were again on point with informative (and fun!) presentations on the following topics: Something WCF This Way Comes RIA Window: Expression, Silverlight, and MVVM LINQ De-crypted Tales from the Webside- ASP.Net Webforms, Ajax, and more The sessions were action packed (watch out for flying RoadBlocks!) with tons of good info.  While they all rocked, my personal favorite were the looks into WCF and RIA development talks.  The WCF talk covered a walk through why you'd move to...
