Gee! I'll be having a blast tommorow! Finally i'll get to see one of the guys that i look up to in Application Development and Design! Mark Miller, author of (among many other things) CodeRush, a productivity add-in for VS.NET and Refactor! an add-in to Visual Studio .NET that parses your Source code as you move through it and delivers context specific refactorings that automate the process of reorganizing and shaping your source to make it easier to read and cheaper to maintain. Mark will be the guest speaker tommorow on the group meeting of SD .NET Developers Group. His topic for tommorow would be about "The Science of Great UI " which is expect to be a a great session since i know Mr. Miller is very well-versed when it comes to designing application UI. The meeting will be on Qualcom Incorporated's San Diego Design Center - Auditorium at 6:00-9:00pm. There would be free pizza for the attendees courtesy of SMS.ac plus there would be raffle for some authentic San Diego .NET Developer swag.
