  Slides – Jan 07 MSDN TechTalks: 20 Mins on OpenXml 

  In my keynote segment during the Jan 07 MSDN TechTalks, I showed many OpenXml demos and briefly showed a detailed slide deck on the OpenXml format.  

  For those of you interested in a closer look… here is the deck.

  The “bulk water image” .NET demo is below.  Be warned, even though my code is commented… it ain’t super spiffy clean.  It does highlight the key concepts of using .NET to work with OpenXml document packages and even includes a sample PPTX file with lots of images to play with.  Make sure if you modify the file, you “Save Out” the file or file corruption may occur.

  Learning More – Windows Embedded 

  John Boladian (a “semi” new guy) just joined the regional Microsoft team here in Singapore.  He looks after Windows Embedded here and while we were talking about a yet-to-be-announced event… he shared some good links for me to share with those of you who’s interested in learning more about Windows Embedded.

  Links on the product range:

  Outlook Vista Sidebar Gadget 

  A Vista Sidebar Gadget is a small app that runs in the “Sidebar” of Windows Vista.  The gadget’s goal is to provide a little tidbit of useful functionality.  Example… the Office team just released a “Schedule” and “Task” gadget which ties into Office Outlook.  Sweet.
