Microsoft Dreamway 2008

This Microsoft event is taking place on October 3rd, on Lisbon at the Centro Cultural de Belém, and guess what? That’s right, I will be there 😀 thanks to being an MSP I get to attend the event without having to pay a dime. Neat huh? Can barely wait to see Monke…. I mean, Steve Ballmer on stage with all his energy 😉 .

Here’s the schedule I picked:

9h15 – Dev01 – Software development: The current status and future trends of technological development
10h15 – Coffee Break
10h45 – Dev02 – Creating rich applications using Silverlight 2.0 (2 sessions)
12h45 – Lunch

16h00 – ITP04 – SQL Server 2008 as an enterprise grade database platform – How to manage and provide robust, reliable, scalable and innovative solutions
17h00 – Coffee Break
17h30 – Dev09 – Windows Presentation Foundation: How can we take advantage of this technology to improve the user experience

So, yeah, it’s my first event of the kind and I’m hoping it will be a great experience to learn 🙂 I’ll keep you readers posted on how it goes.
