TechEd 2011

April 16, 2011 · 1 min read

Now that Mix11 is over, Microsoft’s next big conference is 2011, which happens May 16th through May 19th in Atlanta, GA.  Each of Microsoft’s conferences have a theme; Mix is about the Web, PDC is about new and upcoming technologies, and there are many more.  The focus of is on current Microsoft technologies.  In other words, you would go there to learn about the software that you can use today to get your work done.  If you haven’t been there yet, Atlanta is a nice city and the surrounding communities are beautiful, especially in the Spring.  It should be a good time.

Reviewing the list of sessions, I saw several on MVC 3, Async and Concurrent Programming, and more. What I’m going to try to do over the next month is write about the technologies being presented at 2011.  I already mentioned a couple that are near and dear to my geek heart, but I’ll try to hit a breadth of topics that I think are cool and maybe you will too.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
