A bunch of us from work decided to attend this years MIX08. Finally a conference where I was not working as a staff but attending as an attendee. Awesome! MIX08, is a great conference where developers and designers can learn cutting edge technology, mingle with others, and engage in conversations some of the Program Managers from Microsoft, displaying the new tools, and what is upcoming in the technology, creative and business world.

Why I am going?
Because I want to.... and of course, Siliverlight has captured my imagination.

This conference is in Las Vegas... yes.... where else you can convince developers and designers to mix and mingle, learn and..... for the gambling sort.... try their hand at whatever glittering place they chose to hand over their money.  They say whatever happens in Las Vegas stays there....... or perhaps not...... more to come in this space.

NOTE: I am actually writing these on the last day of the conference, just because, I am having way too much of a good time with Silverlight downloads, play and reading up.....yes, that is true! You see.....as a matter of fact..... casinos hold absolutely no attraction for me, unless we are talking food and wine. The concept of 'feeding money to the house' is not my cup of tea, unless it is a good cause of fine dining and wine...... anyways more in next few posts which will come over the next few hours as sit back and absorb all the experience of the conference and city.
