One of the great things about modern web technology conferences is that most of them put all of their session content online for free. Microsoft took it a step further for this year’s Professional Developer’s Conference (PDC) and streamed all of the sessions live in HD using IIS Smooth Streaming and the Silverlight Media Framework (the PDC player application was developed by Vertigo who also works with us to develop the SMF).

All of the great PDC 2010 sessions are now available for your viewing pleasure.

Here’s a list of my favorite sessions:

• 3-Screen Coding: Sharing code between Windows Phone, Silverlight, and .NET
• Inside Internet Explorer 9 Performance
• Unlocking the JavaScript Opportunity with Internet Explorer 9
• Programming HTML 5
• Taking Advantage of Pinned Sites with Internet Explorer 9 and Windows 7
• Kung Fu Silverlight: Top Tips and Architectural Patterns and Practices
• The Rich Mobile Web – Today and Tomorrow
• Best Practices for Building Cross-Browser Web Applications
• Introducing HTML5 Graphics : Canvas and SVG
• HTML5: More Than Just HTML5

Flex and AIR User Group Pre-release Tour

Flex 3 and AIR are getting close to launch and in preparation, the Adobe Platform Evangelist team is traveling to select cities to show off the great new features and some brand new demos.

Flex 3 is a feature-packed release, adding new UI components like the advanced datagrid and improved CSS capabilities; powerful tooling additions like refactoring; and extensive testing tools including memory and performance profiling, plus the addition of the automated testing framework to Flex Builder.

Adobe AIR is game-changing in so many ways, extending rich applications to the desktop, enabling access to the local file system, system tray, notifications and much more. Now you can write desktop applications using the same skills that you’ve been already using to create great web apps including both Flex and AJAX.

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to see and hear about this highly anticipated release of Flex 3 and AIR during this special pre-release tour. Plus, in addition to giving away some one of a kind Flex/AIR branded schwag, we will also be raffling off a copy of Flex Builder 3 Professional (pending availability) and a full commercial copy of CS3 Web Premium at this event!

Check out the comprehensive listing of dates at flex.org/tour to see if the tour is coming to your city!
