My Sessions:
Session 1 - What’s New in ASP.NET 2.0
ASP.NET 1.1 has a great feature set, but wait until you see ASP.NET 2.0! In this session, we will take a quick lap around the new feature set. ASP.NET 2.0 is packed – so much to see, so little time. We will also introduce the solution that we will be building during the rest of the sessions. Take a look at the cool new stuff in ASP.NET 2.0 that will let you build great web sites faster!
Session 3 - Leveraging Data in ASP.NET 2.0
Let’s face it … all great web sites need data. ASP.NET 2.0 builds on and extends the great data access capabilities of ASP.NET 1.1 with a host of new controls and data binding options. In this session, we will explore the new controls and binding features to bind to both data and objects. We will also leverage the new caching architecture in ASP.NET 2.0, particularly the new and improved cache validation capabilities. Take a look at the cool new data access features in ASP.NET 2.0 that will let you build great web sites faster!
