Listen to Episode 03 - Laurent Bugnion and Silverlight 2 Unleashed.

In this episode of ria.wiresidechat.com, Mike and Josh catch up with Laurent Bugnion about his new book - Silverlight 2 Unleashed.  In this interview, we talk about the new features in Silverlight 2, how it relates to WPF and Flex and lots more.

Laurent Bugnion works as a senior software developer and architect in Switzerland. Originally an electronics engineer from the Engineering School of Yverdon (Switzerland), his interests quickly moved to software, and he achieved a post-graduate degree in software engineering in 1999 in the Engineering School of Rapperswil (Switzerland). Currently, his interests are very much set on WPF, Silverlight, and other .NET 3.5 technologies, which he helped introduce, teach, and coach at Siemens for the past three years. Prior to that, he first wrote embedded C/C++, and then moved to desktop computers in Java, JavaScript, and eventually .NET (WinForms and ASP.NET). After more than 12 years spent developing various software products at Siemens, Laurent is employed since December 2008 by IdentityMine, one of the world’s leading firms in WPF and Silverlight development and design.
