This month we will have a great Windows Phone 7 presentation by Ducas Francis and some premium Tech Ed quality content by Chris Anderson. Here are the details. A day in the life of a Metro developer by Ducas Francis <http://blog.duc.as/> What is Metro? How do I get started on Windows Phone 7? What cool things does it’s API let me do? And why would I come to a Silverlight user group to hear about this…? Take a journey with me through the phone. See what it has to offer. Dig deeper, past the UI, into the UX, and further to the API. Ducas lives and breathes .Net. He is a Senior Consultant working for Readify for the past 3 years. He enjoys long walks on the beach and sunsets, but only if he can read twitter and RSS feeds along the way. Running Silverlight Outside the Browser and with Elevated Trust by Chris Anderson <http://chrisa.wordpress.com/> Silverlight 3 introduced the ability to run your Silverlight applications outside the browser, and Silverlight 4 takes this one step further by enabling you to run your application with elevated trust. Silverlight is no longer a sandboxed browser-only platform now. This session will take you through the new possibilities enabled by this feature, including toast notifications, custom chrome, COM access, and direct file system access. Chris Anderson has been a professional developer for over 10 years now, specializing in building desktop, web, and mobile business applications using Microsoft technologies for industries as wide ranging as accounting, property valuation, mining, the fresh produce industry, pet cremations, logistics, field services, sales, and construction. Now running his own business (Peer Placements <http://www.peerplacements.com.au/>, as co-director) he has turned to Silverlight as the ideal new technology for developing and deploying business applications. Chris is the author of two upcoming books – Pro Business Applications in Silverlight 4 (Apress), and Professional Visual Studio 2010 (Wrox, as coauthor). -- Miguel A.
