First Crack at LINQ and Visual Studio 2008 (Codename Orcas)
I started working with VS2008 pretty regularly about a month ago. One of the first things I wanted to try out was LINQ. I had been to assorted sessions at PDC, TechEd, MIX, and some other shows where they covered LINQ, and I was pretty impressed. In the past, figuring out how to use a new VS feature was almost like a treasure hunt. You could pick up clues here and there, but putting it all together was challenging. I'm not sure if it's due to Scott Gu's blogs, or the intuitive nature of LINQ (or both), but I was pleasantly surprised that I could do it!
