Hi Guys,

I thought I¹d let you in a little early (the official announcement will be
going out tomorrow) on a project we¹ve been working on for Microsoft that
was just launched today:

http://devsta.microsoft.com.au

Basically, DevSta is a competition where developers get 200 hours and 8
minutes to write and submit an application (windows, web ­ including
Silverlight - or Vista gadget). The app has to be based on a theme which
won¹t be released until the competition actually starts in a month (so
you¹ve got plenty of time to free up your calendars).

The comp is exclusively for Australian developers, and there¹s some pretty
cool prizes for the best app (a trip to Vegas, tix to MIX 2009, Xbox¹s etc.)

Check out the site ­ there¹s a great intro video (crank up the volume ­ the
sound is awesome) - it only plays the first time you hit the site, but you
can also download from the ³resources² area (or clear your cookies and watch
it again ­ I¹ve seen it about a hundred times over the last month and am
still not tired of it - although his teeth are too good for a developer! ).

Cheers,


Duncan Campbell | Development Team Lead
