She attends Microsoft TechDays 2009: Share, Groove & Win!
Fabrice BARBIN | 02:12 PM | 02:12 PMShe attends Microsoft TechDays 2009!
Who?
The groovy idol of “Share, Groove and Win” contest of course !
During Microsoft TechDays 2009 at Paris, visit us on Hommes & Process, Open Portal and French Speaking Groove Community booths. Answer few questions on each booth and you will maybe be selected for the draw. A lot of prizes to win!
Behind the “contest” approach, “Share, Groove & Win” is also interesing by the way it will be managed, using a software. We developed this by using WPF on Microsoft Expression Blend and Visual Stutio and store, gather and synchronize data coming from all the booths by using Groove !
This creation – with its playful approach – demonstrates again benefits provided by Groove to create distributed applications and synchronize team member’s information.
Of course, we also used Groove to prepare this contest (materials discussion between partners, …)!

Fabrice BARBIN | 06:46 PM | 06:46 PM
From Feb 10th to Feb 12th, Microsoft TechDays 2009 will take place at Paris. 3 days to discover new Microsoft technologies and products. Of course, it will be a good opportunity to learn more about Groove :
- Hommes & Process will have a booth on the collaboration & communication village. Demonstrations and Q/A about Groove usages and architecture are on the agenda. You will discover new versions of our GrooveIT! products.
- The French Speaking Groove Community will also have its own booth. The right place to discover Groove and exchange tips and tricks on the best way to use the product.
- Finally, I will be speaker on 2 sessions dedicated to Groove. The first one will focus on Dev and Integration capabilities provided by Groove technologies. The second one will be more usages driven. I will illustrate some use case and demo how Groove can be integrated more other products.
Hope to meet you there !
TechDays WebCasts are available!
Fabrice BARBIN | 12:00 PM | 12:00 PMUse Groove to share your tasks as Post-it™
Fabrice BARBIN | 12:00 PM | 12:00 PMDuring a session dedicated to Groove development at Microsoft TechDays – Paris in February, I illustrated my presentation by developing in live an application to manage team tasks. This application enable to create tasks, affect each task to a team member, edit task’s description and status and delete a task when complete. This tasks are displayed on user windows’ desktop as post-it™ and use Groove to store and synchronize data.
With this approach, we are able to create a shared and distributed application, with a “real time” behaviour, and benefit from Groove features : offline access, cross-firewall, easy synchronisation…etc
Few days after this session, I got several feedbacks of Groove users interested by this application. At this stage, it’s only a prototype… but based on user’s feedbacks, i will maybe spend time to work again on this first version to improve it….
