I recently got the opportunity to represent Nagarro at a Microsoft Event, where Scott Guthrie was speaking. Scott runs Microsoft’s Developer Division and is a great visionary and speaker. After the keynote there was a informal session of developers with “The Gu” on what’s coming in .NET. It was amazing to see how Scott went down to lowest level details in explaining everything and anything related to .NET technologies be it on Silverlight 3.0, .NET RIA Services, ASP.NET MVC, IIS 7.0, SEO and so on.
At end there was Q&A session where I ended up raising my hand and asking a question “with so many technology choices available even in .NET for same tasks, the choice picking correct ones becomes tougher, with lack of guidance and gave several examples”. The reply was “That’s a great question” followed by a long answer – explaining the reason why this has happened and a nod of creating more practices and patterns around this topic. Highly encouraged, I ended up asking many more – till I was shut down by moderator! I ended up getting his autograph and a picture together using my low end camera phone – but a moment to remember!
With "The Gu"
