 On
Wednesday NNUG Bergen was
lucky enough to get Einar
Ingebrigtsen to speak for us. He held a great session about XNA and some
game dev history. Einar did game development for about 8 years and
then jumped to business development. His background was perfect to highlight
some of the similarities between the two. Especially interesting was the similarities
around layering.
 Einar is
involved in many things and one of his latest projects is Game Camp. On November 23rd Game
Camp will kick off with a great agenda in Oslo. Go here to check out the agenda and
registration.
Another thing Einar has been doing lately is
creating a 3D engine for Silverlight called Balder. As you may know Silverlight
is a subset of WPF and one of the things they removed was the 3D
stuff. But that didn’t stop him. Check out his 3D project over at CodePlex. To see
the engine in action, check out this
demo.

 Just
saw that there was a new
episode (Silverlight) of The .Net Show out,
and it started with telling us that this is the last episode! I've been
watching this show on and off since its startup in December 1999! The show has
been running for almost 8 years which makes this the longest running series at
Microsoft. However, all good things have to come to an end. But it’s sad. I’ve
really enjoyed this show and for a time (before blogging and rss) it was one of
my few sources to new .Net technology inside the walls of Microsoft. Robert
Hess’s (the host) last words in the show were: “Well, until next time, we'll see you on the
Web and I might recommend you check out channel9.msdn.com. You never know who
you might see show up there.”
So I guess this isn’t the last time we see
Robert. Thanks for all your hard work on this show during the years, giving us the latest news and
insight into .Net technology! Salute!

 First thing I thought about when I heard about WPF/E was that it's Microsoft's answer to Flash. Nothing wrong with that, but now when I saw the official name I thought the exact same thing! Silverlight, Flash, silverlight, flash.... Hmmmm... Just another name for flash :) I wonder if this was what they meant. At least they didn't end up with Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation for Extreme Internet Graphical User Interface (MWPFEIGUI) or something like that. Guess they saw the blog post over at Secret Geek. Anyway, I'm looking forward to do some real coding on Silverlight and for the record; here are the official Silverlight page. Update: For more info about Silverlight, check out Mary Jo Foley's blog post.
