"Winner's don't do different stuff , they do stuff in their own way"

Experience in Microsoft Day @ Dhaka.

Last Saturday Bangladeshi MVPs were arranged an event in Bangladesh for developer and IT professional. This is also directly supported by Microsoft Bangladesh. For the first time I was attending a Microsoft Technology oriented conference. I am very glad to get chance to participant that event. Only 200 developers and IT professionals were get opportunity to join this event.

In that event there were 10 agendas presented by 11 speakers including 5 MVPs. Let discuss each of the topics:

Introduction: The event was behind the time schedule from the starting point. No matter what is the reason this should not be happened. They are blaming IDB authority for this, becoz they does not following DTS time. I hope this will not be happened in future. Thanks to Abhishek Knat, he had done very good job. He had done all the setup within 1 hr.

Opening Speech: Microsoft Bangladesh country manager Feroz Mahmood had represent opening speech. He is Microsoft guy, so obviously he has said all good things about them. He did not forget to tell that Microsoft release DTS hotfix for Bangladesh within 19 days. Also mansion all the social activity currently they are doing in Bangladesh on behalf of Microsoft.

Then Abhishek Knat shows us some very useful links. Actually he was trying to show, how Microsoft is always beside their customer/developer. I think he is also Microsoft guy, but I am not sure about that.

Developing in ASP.NET: Tanzim Saqib is show how to create an ASP.NET web project. With full respect to him, this is most wasted time in the whole event. Most of the developers in that hall are ASP.NET developer. So display this is just a waste of time. This topic distributes the sleeping pill, now only need water. May be I am wrong, some might be fined useful. This is just my own opinion.

My first ASP.NET MVC App: This is one of those topics, which bring me to this event. But I am totally disappointed. This topic content was better and demo are good, but speak is not up to the mark. I don't know why!! Here goes the water. Anywaz this was represented by Mehfuz Hossain MVP.

Unit Testing in MVC and Deo of dotnetshoutouts.com: I think he was so tired during his speech. I was count that he had done minimum 10 min codes without talking to listener. So developers got very good environment to fall on sleep, becoz sleeping pill was already ate. He was also mentioning that during his Q&A session. But I have got some useful open source testing software links, which I was looking for past few days. So this session was become helpful for me. All thanks goes to Kazi Manzur Rahid.

Developing in Silverlight: Last couple of months we are prepared us to fit in WPF.  So this is the most important session for our company, especially Q&A session. Faisal Hossain Khan had done almost every this ok. But lunch time makes the damage. I think he doing well expect Q&A session. Abhishek Knat was brilliantly fixed it up. We have got lot of questions answer. That will help our company to make a good decision.

To be continued..... (Part 2)
