So I'm here at the airport, the conference is over, it was awesome, more on that later. Got tons of new blogs that I'm reading. Here's a good post about why Microsoft is so amazing. Seriously, who else tries to host a Middle East Developers Conference?
These guys (Microsoft) are just innovating like crazy! On top of that they are helping designers/developers succeed in ways that open source and every other vendor in the world not only can't, but won't. It's more than just giving away tools and source code (i.e. Middle East Developers Conference), which isn't easy, and it doesn't bring in money. Microsoft is helping teach/educate/grow designers and developers so that the designers and developers can then innovate and not only build the next web, but all technology which we interact with on a daily basis. Microsoft is only building and providing the tools. And trust me, these tools are amazing! I can see 10+ brown bags being done on this stuff by the end of the summer. What can I do to help others catch this vision?
