    Teched conference - Barcelona

    Hi All,

    My employers saw fit to send me to Barcelona for a week to the big Tech-Ed Microsoft developers conference. So far we've just registered, collected our free swag and listened to the keynote speaker.

    There was a not hugely interesting preview of Visual Studio 2010, which he ran on a not hugely interesting pre-alpha of Windows 7 to show off the multi-touch integration in both (pinch from MS surface).

    But I'm off to an interesting looking talk on F# next, and hopefully a talk on MS dynamic languages (Iron python an dIron Ruby) after that.

    So is anyone else here in Barcelona? What are the hot talks to go to? Will you be going to the UK meet on Wednesday?

    Cheers - Andrew.

    RightyHo,

    We're now a few more sessions in, I've been to a nice accessible introduction to F# (.net Fuctional language based on OCaml for those who don't know) followed by another interesting talk on the .net dynamic runtime and dynamic languages (so IronRuby, ironPython, and bits of C#/.Net 4.0).

    Anyhoo, it seems I might use this thread as a kind of half-blog-half-twitter for Teched (and I've had a couple of beers, so make no sense).
    Cheers all - Andrew.
