      Live Mesh Trailer

      by Florian Krüsch, September 23, 2008

      Here's a direct link to the Live Mesh trailer featured on the Software plus Services overview page on microsoft.com. It even features an Apple and MacOS X. The link is easy to find, there's a little Silverlight JavaScript that pulls an xml file with the video urls.

      A couple of years ago I had to get my head around Grid Computing at university. I dismissed the concepts as purely academic. It's fascinating to see pretty much the same technology about to become totally mainstream.

      The "Grid" in grid computing is an analogy to the electric power grid. Computing power, storage, identiy services... it will be, well, just out there, ready for your app to be plugged in to.

      MIX'08 Session Videos - Reloaded

      by Florian Krüsch, May 16, 2008

      Für alle, die nicht auf der MIX'08 waren oder es, wie ich, nicht geschafft haben alle interessanten oder relevanten Talks zu sehen, gibt es Online Videos der Sessions und Panels unter: http://sessions.visitmix.com/

      Via Scott Hanselman ist zu erfahren, daß diese Videos jetzt in einer neuen, verbesserten Version zur Verfügung stehen, in der nicht nur Slides/Demos, sondern parallel auch die Sprecher selbst als Video zu sehen sind.

      Inhaltlich bietet das zwar nichts neues, bringt aber die Atmosphäre besser rüber und wirkt irgendwie natürlicher. Die Session von Scott Hanselman zu ASP.NET MVC kann ich in dem Zusammenhang besonders empfehlen, Scott ist ein wahrer Entertainer.

      Cheers,
      Florian

    • Although Silverlight 2.0 is yet a few hours away, some information about the API for WebService consumption are already available:

      The Silverlight WebServices blog:
      http://blogs.msdn.com/silverlightws/

      Silverlight + WebServices:
      http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/silverlightws

      This is important stuff, because Silverlight is really all about consuming data and services in a rich way within the browser.

      cheers,
      Florian

      RestChess in WCF

      by Florian Krüsch, March 5, 2008

      Just listened to a great talk about restfull Webservices in WCF by some guys from myspace.com here at MIX'08.

      REST is not new, we've been doing basically the same thing for years, issuing HTTP request and sending back XML or other data, though the semantics are a little bit cleaner.

      What I really found interesting is where they plugged in the necessary extensions into WCF in order to make it work well, e.g. a custom HttpModule to map extensions and adding a custom channel to support Hi/Lo REST support and authentication.

      I hadn't heard of oauth yet, sounds interesting. I'll definetly download the source and play around with it.
