Yesterday was the MSDN DevBash. If you were there, thanks for attending. It was a standing room only event. And, looking back, I think the whole event was exceptional. I hope you all had a great time.
If you are looking for the code from my demo, it's in the next 5 or 6 posts on my blog, just scroll down! If you are wanting my PowerPoint slides, you need to email and for them. You can have them, I just don't want to post them here.
If you DID hear my presentation on using VSTO 3 in Visual Studio 2008 I would appreciate some feedback. I have a long way to go to be a great presenter, but I do love to present. I hope that came across. To those of you who came up to me after the presentation, thank you for your comments.
But please, leave me feedback.
There is a lot to VSTO and we just covered a bit. I hope you walked away with a sense that VSTO is real, Office applications are plausible, and development doesn't have to be difficult. I also hoped you had fun.
My goals when I present are to:
- Present ideas not just lines of code
- Code. Code. Code. Prove it really works.
- Move fast, fill minds with content.
- Show cleaver tips and techniques.
- Make it as fun. Don't let them fall asleep.
- Be relevant. Apply it to the real world.

Good job Jerry, I loed the presentation. I have a greater appreciation of VSTO. Thanks.
I am haven't had that many laughs at a presentation in years. Thanks for keeping the material easy to follow. You really kept the information flowing at a good speed. Hope to see more of your volcano sacrifices.

Your presentation was excellent. Really have no suggestions other than - you should get out and do more.
Your presentation style reminds me of Scott Hanselman's presentation and that should be kudos enough ;)
Very nice job!! Best part of the entire event.
This was by far the best Microsoft presentation I have attended. VSTO has been on my list to research for a current project. You saved me hours of research by presenting an excellent overview of VSTO. Thank you for a great presentation. I know you put in a LOT of time and effort prior delivering it.
Awesome presentation!
