Don and I are doing our talk at Mix tomorrow morning -- it's at 10 am (hopefully everyone will be fully recovered from the attendee party by then -- if not, we'll play some soothing music or something...)

The talk is titled "Navigating the Programmable Web", but it's really going to be quite the code-fest. We're going to be taking the wrapper off the new WCF programming model features for web-style services tomorrow (the stuff that Mark Baker and others have helped with, which we're quite grateful for), so it should be a really good time. I even learned some XAML for this talk :)

Bottom line is that if you've played with the "webby" features we shipped in Orcas Beta 1 and are thinking about sleeping in because you think you've seen it all, that would be too bad...because you've really only seen the tip of the iceberg.

The goals (and bits) for this talk are as follows:

Goals

• How do my programs use the web?
• How do my programs become part of the web?
• How do I do this efficiently and pragmatically?
  

Bits

• Stuff that's already shipped (lots)
• Stuff that will ship in Orcas (lots more)
• Stuff that will ship in TBD (a couple of things)

If you're building Web-style services on the .NET platform today and tomorrow-- whether they're RESTfully architected systems, simple POX methods, or query-via-GET, there's something in this talk for you.

Hope to see you there.
