Demos, Slides and Screenshots from my SecondLife Adventure

My SecondLife experience was certainly novel and I learned a lot in the process.    Even though some got "voted off" the island, I hope we were able to reach out to some other folks...   Clearly this is an experimental thing...

Check out the slides, Silverlight media demo and Silverlight RIA demos if you could not be there.

 

Above are the videos of the demos I did...  The first shows a rich media experience with Silverlight on the mac, and the 2nd shows a chess application playing against JavaScript in Silverlight 1.1 running on the mac..

 

Above is a picture of me at the podium on the Microsoft Island in SecondLife.

Above is a view of the conference room during my talk... Kind of funny that even in SecondLife you can get stuck behind the tall guy ;-)

I was able to show a couple of very cool demos of Silverlight apps...  The cool thing about SecondLife is that I could float up to the screen and point out parts of the video...

 

Above is a look at some of the folks that were there.  While not every seat was taken, we did max the place out in terms of computing\network power and had to turn several folks away at the door.  If you were one of them, my apologies.

Can you tell I love the Silverlight 1.1 poster we did at Mix?  During the talk I floated up to it and pointed out the different parts of the Silverlight framework..  Attendees could also right click and "Take" a copy...If you want one, you can grab a hi res one from here.

  ブラッド・アブラムズ（Brad Abrams読み方正しいのでしょうか？）のブログで 「セカンドライフ上でのSilverlightセッション」の様子が書かれていました。 プレゼンとデモ（ビデオとチェスゲーム）の説明をされたようで、最後に投票（評価？）まで されるという実際のセミナー同様の形式になっているようです。 参加者の方との会話もできるのは当然ですが・・・・ぜひ、参加したかった ...

  OK, I've hit my buzzword quota for the day. Seriously, Brad Abrams gave a talk about Silverlight in Second Life at the end of last month. As it happens, I missed it: it was at 3 PM SLT/PDT, which is 6 PM EDT for me, and my wife expected me home for dinner.

  This is great Brad, thanks for sharing. The video presenting RIA on MAC is great. Sorry I missed the live presentation.
