Seattle, Tacoma, Redmond, WPF training and meeting with Microsoft

At work, I am currently (since approximately March last year, actually) working on an application using Microsoft's latest graphic technologies called WPF. In order to train us with that technology, 8 developers and 3 designers involved in the project had the chance to follow a training given by IdentityMine, an excellent firm specialized in WPF development in Tacoma, WA, not far from Seattle.

The training week was amazing, and we also took the opportunity to drive to Redmond, where Microsoft has its headquarters and campus, to meet a few architects with whom we were already in contact. After the meeting, we had a "geek field trip" to the company store and the museum.

The same evening, we had dinner at the Space Needle, a very impressive experience in the revolving restaurant.

All in all, it was an amazing week, a great opportunity to meet some of the key players with this new technology and to exchange experiences and create new contacts.
