We attended the Techfest 2008 at Makati Shangri-La Hotel. The said event tackles the launching of the latest/newest technology of Microsoft that last for about 9 hours. Microsoft products are being used by different IT companies and that includes the company I am working at. The event was nice and informative because the speakers are good. They introduced to us the new functionalities of each software and even demo to us how it works and for us to really understand it. The softwares they have right now is very many to enumerate. Some are being used already and some is not being used because it has less exposure. But in this event, they focus on what the Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 can do that others are not capable of. The said softwares will be released by April this year. They also have a brief background of softwares like Expressions Blend and Silverlight which is being used by graphic artist or the one that creates the User Interface (UI)/look for the developed system/program/web application. And the great thing about the event is that it is free to all IT professionals. They also have prizes in the end of the event that includes training vouchers sponsored by different training partners of Microsoft. Hope I can attend the next Techfest and win some of their prizes! hehe
After that event, we still stayed at the hotel for a while and take some pictures for remembrance. Here are some of our pictures and pictures taken of the place:
