I was thrilled to be able to attend TechEd North America 2014 in Houston last week. I got to go to Orlando in 2008, and since then I’ve had to settle for watching the sessions online (which ain’t bad – They’re all available on Channel 9 for streaming or downloading. Here are links to the Developer Track sessions and to the sessions from all tracks.)
The sessions I attended (with my favorites bolded) were:
Shiny new stuff
- The Microsoft Application Platform for Developers: Create Applications That Span Devices and Services
- INTRODUCING: The Future of .NET on the Server
- DEEP DIVE: The Future of .NET on the Server
- ASP.NET: Building Web Application Using ASP.NET and Visual Studio
- The Next Generation of .NET for Building Applications
- The Future of Visual Basic and C#
