Tomorrow: DevDays 2008 - Amsterdam

Tomorrow (May 22) and Friday (May 23) DevDays 2008 is hosted in the RAI, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Two days of technical developer sessions and a Geek Night in between. The DevDays event is an event where you get two days packed with sessions and other presentations the latest news on Microsoft technologies and developments in that area.
There will be some great presenters there at your service. How about Ingo Rammer doing his famous debugging sessions, Rafal Lukawiecki who is always capable explaining highly technical information in a clear way.
I noticed that one of my teachers, Ron Tolido - he was teaching C++ when I was studying for my BSc CS a loooooooooong time ago - is doing a presentation on social networks development as you can experience in sites such as FaceBook, LinkedIn, MySpace or Hyves (that's a very popular Dutch social network where almost every Dutch student virtually resides)
The event in between, Geek Night (Geeks Only), special interest groups will show things on XNA Game, Flightsim and Robotics Development and there is the Coding4Fun sessions showing things such as PopFly technologies.
I'll be there to learn some things (yes, I have to do some learning too. Never pretend to think you know everything!) and meet some peers. Are you going? Don't hesitate to pull my shirt (carefully) and have a talk if you want. I'm sure you too have interesting things to talk about.
