November 2004


Billy Hollis went beyond the general smart client discussion we usually have and dug into architecure issues. What works? What doesn’t work? Listen to Billy’s stories from the field and learn from his experience. Awesome show.

Julie Lerman talks about her recent experiences with the Base Class Library 2.0, Tablet PC development and ADO.NET 2.0. She also talks about her professional life before software development, which may come as a bit of a shock. All-in-all it was a good conversation.

Dare we say the future? This show was originally intended to be a discussion about Java and Spring.NET with Mark Pollack. Then Ted was invited, and he invited Don. The result is an almost two hour discussion of Java and .NET. This is definitely going to be a classic.

Kate Gregory talks to Carl (in this retro interview-only show) about the new C++, why she prefers VB.NET over C#, Visual Studio Tools for Office, OOP, Sockets, and merry old England! This is the first of our attempt to make .NET Rocks! more geeky and less freaky! We hope you like it!
