Microsoft's premier web conference, Mix07, is coming up in a couple weeks and it looks like I might have been a little late trying to get a pass. It's sold out. I'm on the wait list, so fingers crossed.
Checking out the Sessions page on the Mix07 site has me kicking myself. Among numerous sessions on WPF/e and at least one WPF session on a comic book reader that noone should be able to resist--the Mix07 site also lists a couple sessions that reference ink. Yes, ink.
Here they are:
"WPF/E" and Ink
Audience(s): Business Decision Maker, Designer, Developer
In this lab, learn how to add Ink annotation support to "WPF/E" Web content. Familiarize yourself with an existing "WPF/E" photo browsing Web page; learn how to implement Inking support; learn to change the way Ink looks, add support for the Stylus eraser, and more. Adding Ink to your "WPF/E" Web content makes it more interactive, and adds personality. "WPF/E" enables Web-hosted, cross-browser, and cross-platform Inking content that is easy to implement, and easy to integrate with other "WPF/E" content and mechanisms.
Ink for Designers and Developers
Speaker(s): Sam Geroge - Microsoft
Audience(s): Designer, Developer
Imagine if your users could add handwritten annotations over online photos, greeting cards or video (including live playback of your handwriting). Learn how to use Ink to take your Web sites to new heights of interactivity, personalization, social interaction, and usability. Learn the key design principles for Ink, and see how to code for Ink in the browser and on the server.
"Adding Ink to your "WPF/E" Web content"? Cross-browser? How cool would this be?
