Great Event ....


There's a lot of thing that I wanna tell you in this blog.During last week, everything was nice. Finally, my boss gave permission to me to go to Microsoft Event at Hotel Mulia Senayan. It's hard for my sweetest company to let us follow the event like this. It is free that they didn't event spend money. If they do like this for FREE event, so how about if we've got to spend money for an event? I think you can answer it and I know it must be correct.


Now let's talk about the event. The event is called The Lord of The Code. What thing occurs in your mind when you read the above phrase? Yes, it is a movie, Lord of The Rings. There were Frodo, beatiful fairy, Arragon (I hope I spell it well), and misterious rings. So, the room is using Lord Of The Rings Theme. All the speakers came up to the stage by holding up a sword. Hehehe .. I thought it funny. But it's ok. It ain't the main thing of the event.There were two main speakers. They flight from US. They are a part of Microsoft giant. They were Antoine Cote, the development lead Microsoft Visual Studio and .NET and the other was Jay Schmelzer(Phffff ... difficult to spell), the lead program manager of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.The topic was good and I think this is the first time I follow event without any errors occured during the demo. When WWF Introduction event was held in Borobudur hotel, all the speakers showed error in their demos. It was so sad. From the event, I've got a lot of things to learn. By VS .NET you can minimize your code. The software already know what we need and they provide it. It's totally different that we code using VS .NET 2005 and (ehemmm .... hard to say) Old VB (VB 6.0) like I do now. When you use Adodc and then you add a field then 'a crazy error occurs right in front of your eyes'.They really made the software, so they know all the tools in VS .NET. They are also friendly. When break time, they walked around the dining room ( I called it because there was a lot of food there) then discussed or spoke or like me with my other two friends, just laughed and asked the other things out of code. People around us thought that we're crazy because we keep on talking while laughing. But, hey come on ... they are also human beings.So I think it's ok. They gave me their card name and wrote something in my note. I'm happy. I think this could be the first and the last I met them. Eventhough, one day I've got a lot of money and I travel to USA and go to Redmond. I don't think that they'll allow me to meet people like them. So this is a very good opportunity.
