This month’s QMSDNUG meeting features
John O’Brien and Bronwen Zande of
Soul Solutions, speaking on
“Virtual Earth for scalable applications”.

In this session John will prepare you for building a truly scalable Virtual Earth AJAX website utilizing advanced web concepts and the latest tools.  John is highly active in the Virtual Earth community informally supporting the MSDN VE forum, managing the VE code WIKI and publishing VE articles.  For those not specifically interested in online mapping the session still provides an invaluable introduction to ASP.NET AJAX that is powering the next generation of websites.

Agenda:

• Introduction and quick demonstration of Virtual Earth version 4.
• How to build a simple Virtual Earth site in 10min.
• The limitations of the 10min site and the architecture of an enterprise Virtual Earth site.
• ASP.NET AJAX web services and JSON for communication with server side code.
• Clustering Virtual Earth.
• OO JavaScript and AJAX.
• New JavaScript features in the upcoming Visual Studio codenamed “Orcas”.

If you have particular questions you would like answered, John would be glad to hear about them.  Go to his blog post and leave any questions in the blog comments.
