Date: Thursday 25 September 2008........Last September, Microsoft released its cross-platform offering for developing Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), Silverlight v1.0. In this session we introduce the upcoming Silverlight V2 release which in addition to XAML and script, adds support for managed development through C# and Visual Basic. The session assumes that you are familiar with either Windows Forms or ASP.NET and it makes no assumptions of any other knowledge. Come learn why you should care about Silverlight V2, what its capabilities are and how to get started from scratch

    Northern Digitals March Meetup

    1km away in Manchester

    While it finds its feet this meetup will follow the same informal format, of creatives meeting up at The Northern for a drink and meeting new like minded creatives. These networking talks will then hopefully lead to some great work and partnerships.I'm looking at moving Northern Digitals on little with the addition of guest talks by people from different creative fields. More news on this to come, when I've found a venue etc. Any recommendations on this would be great.
