As promised, here are the materials from my talks:

Introduction to ASP.NET MVC

Introduction to jQuery

(Disclaimer: some demos aren't "cleaned up" but they should all work)

I'm off to Rome next week for BASTA! Italia, and quite excited since it's my first time in Italy. Mind you, I always say that but my trips normally involve

Airport -> Hotel -> Conference Venue -> Hotel -> Airport

And that's if the Conference is not held at the same Hotel. In this case, it is :).

Having said that, it will be good to catch up again with friends and eat my all-time favorite food (Pasta) in it's country of origin.

I'll be giving two talks which I thoroughly enjoy

• Introduction to ASP.NET MVC
• Introduction to jQuery

See you there!

I'll be doing an Introduction to jQuery tomorrow at our local user group. It will cover a bunch of goodies including the basics, Ajax and extending jQuery. The talk will be pretty much the same in contents as the one I'll be giving at BASTA in about 2 weeks. Obviously tomorrow's is in Spanish :). There's already 25 people signed up and although there's limited space, feel free to come by even if you haven't signed up. We'll finish off the evening with a round table discussion.

While I was at TechEd in Barcelona last week, I had a chance to sit down with Mark Dunn from .NET Rocks and talk a little bit about ASP.NET MVC and jQuery. They've recorded the interview. You can watch it here

This is awesome news
