chat with scott guthrie
while i was filling my brain with technical goodness at techready, our internal training event, i had a brief opportunity to sit down with scott guthrie (i was seriously debating on whether to link back to his profile cuz' if you don't know who scott guthrie is, shame on you :)) before he rushed off back to his family.
i was actually taping a podcast for thirsty developer so the audio on the video is not great (since i did not want to mess around with mixing the recorded audio with the video). actually the video is not great either since i did not bring a tripod and had my camera sitting on a pillow on an ottoman and it clearly sunk (remind me to yell at my boss for not getting me some good video gear).
even with the poor equipment setup, the video was still worthwhile to post alongside the thirsty developer podcast (which also contains another chat i had at techready, but i will save that for a different post). it really is amazing that a corporate vice president at msft can be so down to earth and understand the community that he serves. it also helps that he is wicked smart too!

I'll see you at the upcoming events!
In the meantime, can I get the code for your
Silverlight Video Player you're using on your blog for my blog? It's exactly what I'd like to be using. Just the code from <div> to </div>, please? It would be much appreciated! I can open a folder for you on Skydrive or you could put it out there and I'll come by and download it. Maybe I need your references too.

edge, do a view source and look for "devlive:slscontrol". the div is the container for it. the slscontrol is a function of silverlight streaming services though.
probably better for me to do a blog post on it rather than in the comments. look for it this weekend or early next week.

I listened to your presentation on Live Platform development at IndyTechFest this weekend. I went to view your interview with ScottGu and I don't see the preview rectangles in FireFox. If I switch the rendering to IE (using IE Tab), then I can play the videos. On the surface demos, it is offering to install silverlight 1.0. If I try to install, it says that a new version is installed.
Just an FYI...
