Plumbers at Work - Episode 12 - Babel Fish and Zebras

For those of you not familiar with the Plumbers at Work, it's a podcast that I do with two of my fellow Cannucks, John Bristowe - Developer Advisor for Microsoft Canada - and Bil Simser - SharePoint MVP and Agile Dude. We discuss happenings in the .NET community, events, and whatever else comes to mind, often with a Canadian slant. Without further ado...

The Plumbers are finally back after a long hiatus with a new 1/2 hour format. You can download it from here. In this episode we discuss:

  • Heroes Happen Here Launch
  • SQL Server 2008
  • Visual Studio 2008
  • Extension methods
  • JavaScript debugging and Intellisense
  • Lamdas, LINQ, and PLINQ
  • DevTeach past and future
  • ALT.NET Open Space Conference coming to Canada
  • ASP.NET MVC Framework
  • MVCContrib Project on CodePlex
  • 360Voice.com
