SWEET
This is Jessi Knapp's famous shout as those who knew her stated. Jessi has recently become a cool host in MSDN TV performing her first show in the 1st episode of The Code Room. The Code Room is a secret, little, dark, and cold place where talk meets the reality, the one that would take the heart of any developer. Just watch it yourself if you wish to know why
Just imagine this with me. Take 3 developers (A guy, woman and a man); give them a crash course about ASP.NET. 2.0 membership and authentication with Russ Fustino (Well, in fact this means: let them just attend one of the 500 free MSDN Events world wide) that lasted for one hour and afterwards, put them all in a car going a head to The Code Room. Then, take all their bags and notes nd leave them with only a single laptop and less than 5 hours of battery, telling them to get a simple e-commerce website (that meets Russ' Requirements declared in the show) designed from scratch (starting with DB design) up and running before the batteries run out!

What could you expect from all that except 4.5 hours of CRAZY CODING? ;-). The best of the 3 is that each one of them has his own taste. Great choice, Microsoft.. The show has become the talk of almost all techie websites interested in ASP.NET 2.0 and the Webbers weblogs, so, I had to blog about it here. I 1st wrote about it was when I had explained the most interesting shots that I liked in the show in an Arabic forum post. Maybe I'll come back and comment these details, but, not now, as you can always see it yourself within the show. Just want to know if we have any ASP.NET fans right here who would share me my opinion of it.
To view the stream / download the pilot episode just navigate to their site. The allow you to drop a feedback also. You may get to it if you navigate to MSDN TV or C# website..Unfortunaetly, it's trimmed to less than half an hour (29:45 minutes).
Tip: The 3 developers of the show included Scott Bellware, who's not only a C# MVP but one of the GeeksWithBlogs as well. Check his blog and/or check Google for
other geeks who blogged this too
