TechEd Attendees Stunned by MSDN Innovations
Orange County Convention Center - Orlando, Florida
Surpise and amazement quickly gave way to mental shock and fatigue for attendees of TechEd North America - Developer Week when they learned of recent innovations to MSDN, Microsoft's web site for developers. "I've been to a lot of trade shows before, and seen some pretty wild things, but I've never had people stagger away from my station and keel over after my demo" said Ricardo Arroyo, evangelist for MSDN.

(Above) The MSDN Zone became a Twilight Zone for many attendees of Microsoft's TechEd event.
Several attendees recovered in the "MSDN Zone" recalled a joy-like feeling immediately followed by confusion and a spinning sensation when faced suddenly with seeingly paradoxical concepts like a clean and efficient design for the MSDN home page, forums that are easy and fun to use, search that actually works, and a new application that allows the community to use MSDN to bookmark and share content from across the web.
Senior members of the MSDN team could not be reached for comment, but it was learned today that the group has ordered a large quantity of bean bags for their booth at the PDC2008 event coming up in October.
