If You See Me With a Video Camera... Run!

  • Article

Some shameless self promotion... A while ago I agreed to barge into Visual Studio team member offices with Scoble. Well, we did it and the results are live on channel9.  Personally, as I suggest in the video, Robert likes barging into offices unannounced almost as much as I like seeing their reactions. We made a good team.  I also filmed a small segment to demonstrate some of the cooler community supported tools that work well with VS.

Enjoy!
