Send you kids to camp, Tech Adventure Camp! A college of mine has put together an awesome tech camp for kids. They will be learning Web Development, Programming with Python, and Graphic Design over a three week period. If you children (ages 7 to 16) are interested in technology then check the Tech Adventure Club out.
One of my colleagues at Tyson Foods arranged to have Jean-Paul S. Boodhoo give a Nothin' But Dot Net Training class. I saw the opportunity to have him present at our use group since the training was the same week as our meeting. Jean-Paul was gracious enough to agree to present on Generics: They're no just for collections. He has also agreed to help me launch a Podcast I have been wanting to start called Let's Talk Code!. Thanks, JP for helping get this started. Generics: They’re not just for collections In this session participants will be introduced to advanced usages of generics outside of the realm of just strongly typed collections. They will learn about how the focus of generics in the realm of collections has clouded the fact that generics can be used to introduce powerful capabilities into your application frameworks and solutions. Practical demonstrations will be utilized to showcase how developers can immediately start harnessing the power of generics in their applications today.
Jean-Paul S. Boodhoo is an independent consultant who spends most of his days helping teams realize success through the adoption and application of agile practices.
