Microsoft TechEd 2009 New Zealand

16. September 2009

 

Microsoft TechEd  2009 New Zealand has been finished today. To be honest, this year's event is quite disappointing. I can only give it 6 out of 10. One of the most common words I heard is "Sorry, I cannot talk about this right now". There are not a lot of new stuffs from a developer's point of view. In my last session "OFC301 - Deep dive into SharePoint features and solutions", it looks like the speaker was doing SharePoint Development 101. Come on!  :( Maybe Microsoft should follow Gen-I's example, found some nice looking girls to make juice for everyone. That would be more fun than sitting there and listening to something really basic.  But among all sessions I attended, I found those sessions presented by Michael Howard are really good. He really inspired on how I should write secure code as a developer. Apart from that, I also quite excited about the Windows Identity Foundation. But that about all, hopefully there will be a more exciting TechEd next year.
