Ahoy!

Our inaugural June 2011 Meetup is scheduled for June 20th from 6PM to 8PM @ TechColumbus. Please see details below & kindly RSVP.

Topic:
What’s next with Windows Phone & how Azure plays a role.

Abstract:
In this session, we take a brief look at some of the upcoming Windows Phone 7 enhancements in the next release codenamed “Mango” — what’s in it for the user & the developers. This will be more of a curtain-raiser with much more in-depth Mango sessions to follow. Next, we take a quick deep-dive to see how Windows Azure & WP7 play together. Hope you enjoy!
