The Digital Movement

*Note: TDM is strictly agnostic, and we choose to share with our community the events which we think are of high value and interest to our community.

*Update: Unfortunately, there is also a ruby meetup happening at the same time… there are gonna be a lot of folks who are gonna be really torn, but make your choice folks! :)

Hi folks!

Nic has extended an exclusive invitation to the TDM Community, particularly to you geeks, bloggers and entrepreneurs out there, to a event that is happening tomorrow at Geek Terminal. Microsoft is bringing together a couple of top notch developers, who are not just Silverlight experts, but also vastly experienced in flash, video and design as well to come and share their experiences and tips on the latest development platforms.

For the sake of making things convenient for you guys, i did some googling to see what they did, so check out their profiles below!  

One thing to be sure- these 2 folks are certainly not Microsofties, but are independent developers using Silverlight to complement their pre-existing skill sets in flash, design and all.

Geek #1: Beau Ambur: CEO, Metalliq

Check out the ultra slick silverlight application “Top Banana” that was presented at Microsoft MIX Conference Keynote session. The CEO of Metalliq, who developed this application, Beau Ambur, will be at Pre-Mix to share his experiences and tips.

Again, check out the video here.

Geek #2: Lee Brimelow, Sr Design Technologist @ Frog Design

Lee Brimelow is an award-winning interactive designer who is currently focused on developing new and innovative ways of using Flash and Silverlight to develop the next generation. Lee maintains a blog devoted to Flash development at www.theflashblog.com and his personal website can be found at www.leebrimelow.com. Besides his work at Frog, he also does plenty of flash, microsoft and interactive training..

Ok, this should be really cool for all the techies out there, particularly for us interested in developing for RIAs. 

Places are very limited, so pop an email to Estee to RSVP!

Cheers,
Ming Yeow
