Ben H Blog - Keep it Simple, Then Refactor.

For those of you in the Rocky Mountain area we are one week away from the Tech-Trifecta in Denver.  In case you live in a cave, the Tech-Trifecta is a free event including three tracks:  .NET Development, SQL Server and Windows.  If you have not registered please do at www.rmtechtrifecta.com.  In case you didn’t know the speaker and topic schedule has also been updated.  We have some unbelievable stuff going on.  I can’t believe this is a free event!  Please join us.  I will be speaking there as well and I hope to see you.  If you can’t make one of my sessions, please stop me in the hall or atrium and say Hello.

Also, I am organizing a Skiing\Boarding day at Copper Mountain on next Sunday the day after the event.  Anyone is welcome but please register for that event as well so we know how many discounted tickets we will need.  The link to register for the Skiing\Boarding event is also on the Trifecta site.  I am looking forward to the Trifecta, but I’m also looking forward to blowing of some steam the day after.

Just wanted to pass on this link to a post from Rocky Lhotka.  He describes why many of his new projects are starting to favor Silverlight over ASP.NET and Win Forms.  It’s a quick read and gets you thinking.  Check it out:
