I just released my fourth WP7 app tonight! YAHOO! DevTeach Ottawa 2011

 I just released my latest WP7 app for an upcoming conference in Ottawa! Read on for more details.
I’m lucky to be able to goto DevTeach Ottawa 2011 and last Thursday I thought, wouldn’t it be cool if they had a WP7 app? I couldn’t find one, so I naturally thought….hhhhmmmm why couldn’t I whip one up?! So off I went and tonight, after three nights of head down work (and raiding some of the Halloween chocolate stock piles) I released my fourth WP7 app!
With a bit of luck, it’ll be released in just in time for when the conference starts on Wed!
 Key features are:
- General information about the conference, hours, bonus sessions
- Maps, venue and the ALL important floor plan with the tracks and their associated room numbers
- Presenters with links to their web pages, blog, Twitter, LinkedIn, MVP profiles and Regional Director information (yup, if they have a url they have a link)
- Sessions summary by track (this needs a bit of work, I’m exhausted tonight and cut some corners, this will be an area for bug fixes tomorrow night)
Now that my DevTeach Ottawa 2011 conference app is released, I just have to wait for the acceptance email! I can’t wait. Until then, it’s time to grab a coffee and get coding!

Thank you very much Wes. It's not perfect, but at least it's "good enough." (for now haha) I have a tendency to uuuhhh....hhmmmm gold plate my apps....ggrrrr. But for this one, time was of the essence. There was a minimum I wanted to get done (sessions, presenters, floorplan) and once I reached that, fire the submit. Now I can work on an update. Eventually I want to work on one for ODNC as well! Once this one is released, I hope you like and can review it? Have a good week and see you at DevTeach!
