I just finished giving a presentation on Whidbey (VS.NET 2k5) and C# 2.0 to a group of engineers (both local and remote via Netmeeting) here at HP. Going into the class I was quite nervous. Why? Was it stage fright? Nope, I dig presenting and teaching so that wasn't it. The issue: I had 62 slides plus code demos to show...and 2 hours to do it in. Doing the math, thats about 2 minutes allowed per slide and not including the demos. Well, not only did I finish, but I finished with about 10 minutes to spare. Granted, some of the slides were a quick “this is what this means...next slide”. I'm working with the Portland Area .NET User's Group (PADNUG) to give this same presentation so if you're in the Portland area and not a member of PADNUG, go check em out at http://www.padnug.org.
