Live from PDC: Day Two
More Surface goodness at PDC today. Most folks in the booth today were buzzing about the news we made regarding the broad availability of the SDK, the new controls and the contest winner. In the event you missed the details scroll down the blog and check out Eric's recap and if you're at PDC swing by the booth tomorrow for more info or attend our session at 11:30am.
In addition to the steady booth traffic, we continued to register several hundred more attendees with our conference connection card. We also hosted a table at the Ask The Expert session where we fielded questions from roadmap (yes, we're working it) to competition to WPF integration. Lot's of good, challenging and technical discussions.
The evening ended with the PDC Geekfest (think party with old school video games, music, food and beer) during which we were invaded by a huge contingent of developers from Iceland. Using Surface and our Concierge app we not only discovered everyone's home, but also learned that many people (nearly everyone) in their Iceland neighborhood owned a large trampoline. No joke. Apparently it was the fashion last summer. Who knew? Next time you're at a Surface, search within Reykjavik, and those round structures you see in people's backyards...they aren't pools, they're trampolines. Only at PDC...
Off to bed,
