Very random thoughts on a variety of interactive media topics.

Inaugural UK Silverlight User Group

 

A few of you have been asking when we're going to organise the inaugural Silverlight User Group we said we would organise in the UK.

Conchango has been working with Silverlight 2.0 since its release into the early adopter programme a few months ago, and have been gagged ever since (in a good way!), until finally it was released in public at MIX08 last week.

So - now it's out there and we're not in danger of breaching our NDA, we've decided to sort out a date - and at the moment, we've got good space in the week of the 31st March to 4th April - so thought we'd throw it out to you to see what you prefer!

Venue would be our offices at 36 Southwark Bridge Road, SE1 9EU.

Email me, Rich Griffin or Michelle Flynn with preferred dates. We're thinking early evening. We'll provide the beer and pizza!

This is an excellent follow on from the demo of a Silverlight bank app that was given at the .Net User Grp we hosted this week in our London office.

About Paul.Dawson

I started working in 'new media' when it was... around 1996, doing websites for people like DHL and Cellnet (remember them?) as well as CD-Roms for people like Doring Kindersley. I joined Conchango in 1999 because I was fed up with the conflicts and overlaps between the companies that we tended to partner with to deliver these things. Usually it was a tech company and a marketing agency. Neither had the user's needs in mind, and both were trying hard to take business away from each other.. so at Conchango I saw the opportunity to create an integrated team, who as a result of all being on the same side, and following good user centred design process, delivered better stuff for both our clients and their customers. So we built an interactive media team who do design, branding and user experience, and in 2006 were rated best in Europe at this by Forrester Research. Which was nice! Now I spend a lot of time evangelising to customers and at conferences, about what Conchango do in the field of Customer and Brand Experience, as well as still working for real clients on real projects!
