UK Tech Days (Day 3) – Silverlight 4.0, ASP .NET 4 and Windows Azzure

Day three of the UK Tech days also had a great start as its preceding days. It had entertaining and useful sessions from experts and designers briefing the audience about the Silverlight 4, ASP .NET 4, Visual Studio 2010 and more. The great news for the day was that the release of the software was officially announced and it is not very far. Silverlight 4 is all set to hit the market on 15th April. The day began with a nice cognitive session by Mike Taulty. He covered all the main aspects of Silverlight 4 which included the tool support, functional improvements and the frameworks associated with it.

Among other highlights on day 3, presentation by Michael Koester needs a special note. He gave such afluent talk on the design and Blend. Michael showed the audience some of the best features of Blend that included the photoshop import and also the illustrator. Though the presentation was targeted towards technically strong audience it did not disappoint others as there were enough demonstrations to help people get what the product was.
Some of the attendees were also interviewed to know their thoughts and what they liked in the day. Most of them were really happy about what they heard on Silverlight 4. Some were really impressed by the presentation given on the design and felt they could use the product for their business. Hearing from most of these attendees Sara Allison feels that this day has been a great success. It had kept the audience active and had made them feel they were on the right place. One of the attendees also showed her like on Visual Studio 2010 and she said she is very eager for the product to come to the market. She also sees a great potential from this product.
