Recap of Western Kentucky DNUG Meeting
I had a great time at the Western KY .NET User Group meeting last Thursday. Gene Merlin and I made the 2 and a half hour drive with a little help from Red Bull and Hershey's. There were great questions and feedback from this well-educated group at Murray State University. One thing I learned was that it is impossible to cover all of the new development features of SharePoint 2010 in a single sitting! I'm definitely going to split the presentation out into multiples. I thank everyone at the group for their attendance and hospitality.
My favorite demo of the meeting was WPF and the SharePoint Client Object Model. It is definitely worth an encore. I presented a bare bones approach to updating a SharePoint announcement list. If you look at the code attached below and it seems over-simplistic, that's because it is. It is worth taking a look at the solution to see get familiar with the concepts, but my intentions are to add to it as time allows to show some more advanced SharePoint 2010 Client Object Model functionality.
