TechEd Developers 2008 is Packed with UC Development Content

Everyone that touches the UC products and SDK is heads down getting ready for TechEd 2008.  It's going to be awesome. 

First, we've great breakout sessions to show you how to build communications features into your apps, like IM, voice and video.  We've also got Interactive Theatre sessions where we'll show and discuss deeper demos of what the SDKs can do (and it's pretty cool).  Along with that, we've got HOLs built on top of a full OCS 2007 and Exchange 2007 environment where you can fire up Visual Studio and kick the tires. 

Here's and example:

1. It takes about 10 lines of code to launch a voice call.  We'll show you that code in the breakouts.

2. Adding communications like voice calls makes for some really compelling apps.  We'll show you those apps and how we built them in the Interactive Theatre.

3. You'll be able to write that code in the HOLs to see the code in action.

Here are the sessions we'll have at TechEd:
