11:30 Developer Power Lunch - Pizza and Soda
Microsoft

Philly .Net is hosting a special event this week. On Thursday December 2nd, we will be hosting a "Lunch and Learn" event to view the live stream of the Future of Silverlight Firestarter. For more information about this event visit http://www.silverlight.net/news/events/firestarter/. Keep in mind that we will only be viewing the Keynote which is from 12:00-1:45.

Come a few minutes early to enjoy a developer's favorite meal. Nothing is nothing more nutritious for developers than pizza and soda. (ok maybe we lied a bit about the nutritious part)

12:00 The Future of Silverlight Keynote – presented live, in-pseudo HD!
Scott Guthrie, Microsoft

Microsoft's Corporate Vice President Scott Guthrie will be delivering a 90 minute keynote on the future of Silverlight. In it I’ll cover our future Silverlight roadmap, and provide a first look at some of the exciting things coming. If you are interested in Silverlight you won’t want to miss it.

Scott Guthrie is corporate vice president of Microsoft's .NET Developer Platform, where he runs the development teams responsible for delivering Microsoft Visual Studio developer tools and Microsoft .NET Framework technologies for building client and Web applications. A founding member of the .NET project, Guthrie has played a key role in the design and development of Visual Studio and the .NET Framework since 1999. Guthrie is also responsible for Microsoft's Web server platform and development tools teams. He has also more recently driven the development of Silverlight – a cross browser, cross platform plug-in for delivering next generation media experiences and rich internet applications for the Web. Today, Guthrie directly manages the development teams that build the Common Language Runtime (CLR), ASP.NET, Silverlight, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), IIS, Commerce Server and the Visual Studio Tools for Web, Client and Silverlight development. Guthrie graduated with a degree in computer science from Duke University.
