Second Year of ISV Accellerator
First we would to thank you for all of isv that had come in the pas t six month. Share the idea, share the opinion, and share the spirit to build your own product. We know that your time is limited, but we really surprised that many of you can join the event ISV Accelerator (a.k.a Bina ISV) and spend your time to talk and learn about Microsoft empowered technology. Now we go in the second part of Bina ISV (we can said second year). We know building product is hard and make the product is reach to the market is harder. Now ISV have great place to share your product in http://hanomanonline.com
We know we need improvement all day long and thanks for December batch who getting hand to help us make a new approach of Bina ISV training. Below is change that we have expected to run in 2007
- Change the rule, As we know Bina ISV is use 60:40 composition so it's mean 60% for lab and 40% for presentation. Many participant based on feedback form need practical resources. Yup you want it we give it we change the composition of this workshop into 80:20 so we use 80% of lab and 20% of presentation (exception for the last day).
- We want to talk use case study, Rather than simple demo and simple sample, in the second year of bina isv we want to rise a real problem and make a real POC for the problem (sorry still not the real solution since we have limited time). In Example in December batch we build a mini Amazon web services and possible smart clients to consume the services. In second day we build Transfer Trackers build by three web services (one using standard asp.net model, one using standards soap authentication model, and one using Web Services Software Factory) and one Smart client that easily work with Microsoft Excel. In day three build a widget like digital clock using XAML, Speech Synthesizer (you can read how easy to use speech synthesizer in Vista in the next article), and make it pretty by using the damn Good Microsoft Expression product.
- We want to hear you. We have allocated a time in the last day of event to hear your product. For December batch we really thank you for KIOSS Project that have show us good product called SIMBANGDA
Hope we can still get in touch in the next year
