Last week Microsoft The Netherlands held another great edition of the Developer Days. With a fantastic line-up of speakers and a smooth organization I guess everyone must have enjoyed it. I know I had a good time and hope you did as well. Thanks to those of you who attended any of my sessions. I have...
Next Monday, 30th of March there will be an SDN event in Driebergen, The Netherlands. The central theme of the event is Testing in software. I will be there talking about two test-related topics (descriptions in Dutch): Make your software more testable with Unity : ” Software schijnt beter testbaar...
This year's edition was great, maybe even the nicest ever. Noordwijkerhout and its hotel annex conference venue are a great place to stay. The previous years at Papendal, Arnhem were very nice, but I guess this one tops it. Anyway, I met loads of people, from famous to acquaintances from the community...
Past Monday and Tuesday the annual Software Developer Conference (SDC, before 2004 known as the Conference to the Max) was held in Papendal, Arnhem again. Loads of great national and international speakers where there to educate and entertain the 450 participants. The vibe was good and I think everybody...
It took a couple of days to wind down again. The 2007 edition of the Dutch Developer Days were exciting and excellent. It was real nice to meet nearly everybody (or so it feels).

The talk was about Tips and tricks in Visual Studio 2005. Check out the slides for some nice things you might not know...
While at the DevDays several people came up to me after the sessions. A couple of them had very interesting questions. Constantijn Enders of LogicaCMG asked me where to catch any exceptions that are thrown during an asynchronous page or task. I responded that it should be in the End... handler for the...
Here are the slides and demo code to my DevDays 2006 presentation "ASP.NET 2.0 Black Belt". Make sure you check the hidden slides as well. There's some nice extra info on them. Also, if you visited my talk on the first day, notice the updated slide on the architecture of Query Notifications. I'll explain...
The website for the Developer Days 2006 in The Netherlands has been updated to include the sessions . I guess the sessions overview still needs a bit of work, because there's a lot of typos in session names and names of the speakers (like my colleague Anko Duize , without the 'r'). So check back soon...
