Expression & Silverlight session at Microsoft Dubai
We had the pleasure of having Michael Koster with us in Dubai last week and he held an Expression and Silverlight session for the TechiesUAE group at the Microsoft office. We saw some very cool apps that were built with little to no code all using Expression.
