Usability in Practice: 10 Keys to a Better User Experience in XAML Platforms
- Beres, Jason (3)
User Group/Event: Dallas XAML UG (5)
Recorded On: 11/9/2010
Abstract: In today's Internet age, the functionality of an application has equal weight to the overall usability and experience. Flashy colors and simple animations won't cover the flaws in an application that wasn't designed with usability in mind. In this talk, we'll cover 10 key areas that can help you deliver better user experiences, with a focus on XAML platforms, like the new Windows Phone 7 platform. You'll see examples of how small changes can make a big difference in the interactions your customers have with the software you build. You'll also be introduced to a simple, iterative process that can help you get to the 10 keys to a better user experience on your own.

Silverlight 4 is Ready for the Enterprise
- Beres, Jason (3)
User Group/Event: Dallas ASP.NET UG (11)
Recorded On: 8/24/2010
Abstract: In this code focused talk (no slides, really!), you will learn how Silverlight 4 can take an application beyond the typical RIA experience of animations, impressive visuals and high end multimedia experiences. Features like signed & trusted out of browser installation, local file system access, peripheral device access, and drag & drop support are just a few of the necessary features you will learn about that an enterprise class application needs. Add to that mix a robust and secure data access story with RIA Services, and you will have a hard time arguing against Silverlight as the choice for your development needs.
