ODC2008: that's a wrap!

The Office Developer Conference is now all wrapped up. What a fantastic week with loads of great content! I wish I had more time to see some of the sessions, but oh well, such is life. I hope everyone that attended had a great time and enjoyed the show.

I've uploaded my slide deck and sample code from my presentations on my blog which you can get from my speaking page. To those of you who attended my talks, thank you very much for dealing with my persistent cough. Trust me when I say it drove me more crazy than you. Also thanks for the evals... you've pushed my two talks to be top rated ones for ODC2008! :)

Next up is the SharePoint Conference in Seattle, WA in three weeks. See you there! Oh... and we will most certainly be doing a SharePoint by Day, SharePint by Night deal, so stay tuned for those plans!

Hi Andrew,

One of the best talks at ODC 2008. What a great insight into some of the performance aspects. I got what I was expecting from your session.

My only gripe about ODC is not all the presenters remembered to let us know where and when the slide decks and/or code will be available.

Thanks!

Nag-
Thanks for the comment! My decks are always on my blog, but you can get the other session decks from CommNet, the same place you filled our evaluations.

Saw your session at odc, triede to post something at that time, but i was so in a lack of sleep that i might have hit the ESC button instead off Enter.

Just entered my blog today and saw that i had put something together back then explaning why not to use Page.ExecuteRegisteredAsyncTasks() in async webparts. You did that in you demo on Building high performance... It is correct that you task will be executed at the same time, but i will be a blocking wait on the Request thread. If you dont use executeregisterasyncTask, then your web part will run to PreRender and the task is handed off to another thread and executed on that thread and then handed back to the web part in a new thread from the thread pool inbetween prerender and prerendercomplete.

Ohh well, you might have been corrected about this before then just ignore me, else pop into my blog and take a look at the code, http://klatre.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!B246D624C58A041E!135.entry.

And by the way, by fare you sessions, along side John h., Ted p and the others from Ted pattison group was awesome! Kinda crap coming all the way from denmark for a not so great conference.
