It’s going to be a big year for Microsoft and the whole .net army of developers that Redmond has created! This is the year of Microsoft, love them or hate them, you are going to see some things you never thought possible start coming from this software development giant! There are three Microsoft Developer and IT events this year, PDC, MIX, and Tech Ed! Today, Microsoft announced their plans to buy Yahoo! Silverlight will be powering one of the most Media rich sites EVER created for the Olympics, Big year indeed!
Make sure you check out Heroes Happen Here in whatever city you are in!
Also, there is a pretty cool comic strip from Heroes Happen Here, pretty well put together software development comic!
