WPF talk this Thursday: "Ultra Rich Interactive Applications"

I have been in very much stress lately and hardly had time to post, but I don't forget you, dear readers...

Anyway, this Thursday, I will be talking in a RIA conference organized by the Internet Briefing group here in Zurich, in the World Trade Center. My talk is titled "Ultra Rich Interactive Applications with WPF" and subtitled "When Silverlight is not enough...". I think it's going to be an interesting talk (but obviously I am partial) about the major differences between WPF and Silverlight, and the added richness that WPF provides. I am a big fan of Silverlight, but I have to admit that it's nice going back to the amazing power of WPF sometimes, without having to worry about "is that feature even implemented in Silverlight"?

The talk takes place between 16:30 and 17:30 in the World Trade Center, Leutschenbachstrasse 95, 8050 Zürich. Hoping to see some of you there, maybe!

Hey Chris,

I intend to, yes. I will just have to check with the organizer to see if it's OK, but I think it will be. Stay posted on my blog, I will mention when the content is available.

Greetings,
Laurent

Hey could you comment on the major differences between SL and WPF? I see SL having as much value as WPF in terms of IInputElement, DP's, geometry data etc. My goal is to have a common code base which compiles to both platforms so I have a bias.

Thank you,

Rob

Hi Rob,

May I suggest you download my presentation slides, they are available at http://www.galasoft.ch/presentations

It's a rich subject, and it's difficult to summarize in just a few lines. I hope the slides give you a starting point.

Greetings,
Laurent
