Lunch and Learn at DevTeach…

by Jean-Rene Roy 12. March 2010 03:30

All week at DevTeach we had fun and saw many very good sessions but at lunch time we had nowhere to go.  So I’ve been asking for volunteers to show demos at lunch.  Beth Massi volunteered to present Open XML SDK on Wednesday and I presented my Sync. Framework  onThursday.  This is a good thing for the attendees because you do learn during lunch time. Something else we did during lunch time, is running http://www.dnrtv.com/ shows. These are fantastic free training videos you can play in your office at lunch time. Check it out.

Lunch talk about the Sync Framework at the OttawaCommunity.NET

by Jean-Rene Roy 11. March 2010 21:46

Yesterday I did again my talk about the Sync framework at the OttawaCommunity.NET.

At start we had small technical problem with the projector and we started 10 min. last. That is too bad because I did not get a chance to show one of the demos.  The attendees had very good questions about this free framework and I think I raise some interest in this product.  What amazes me when I present this talk is the fact that most attendees do not know what the SQL Server Compact Edition is. Anyway if you have been at this presentation, you can download the source code from a previous blog I did in 2009. See the link below.

DemoCamp Done!

by Jean-Rene Roy 10. December 2009 01:51

Last night I did my presentation at www.TechDays.ca DemoCamp. After 15 minutes I had many questions for another 10 minutes. It’s look like the File Sync. Provider is very popular or my presentation was not that clear.  The application I show in this presentation can be downloaded from a previous blog I did back in April 2009. That application was created by Eric Moreau VB MVP. I alter it a bit with a timer because I am using it on my server to sync directory’s containing over 10 000 files (1.5 gb). That take lest then a 30 sec. on my network.  Try it, it easy to use. Smile

by Jean-Rene Roy 23. November 2009 00:01

Did you know that www.TechDays.ca is doing a DemoCamp on the Wednesday night Dec. 9th? First do you what is a DemoCamp? Well I did not know what a Demo Camp is before I agree to present.  The concept is simple. You come up with a demo of a presentation and your present that Demo and show the code of it for 5 min. It just append that I have a very cool and simple demo in my Sync. Framework presentation will do the job. The demo is about the Sync. File Provider. This is something very useful so I will be demoing that for 5 min.
