Biography
Currently a Technical Architect with Lightbox, mainly producting educational software and line of business applications for education related government departments and commercial companies, with a sprinkling of exciting stuff like Microsoft Surface thrown in for good measure! Previous to this I ran my own business for around 4 years, before deciding that monthly management reports are far less interesting than they sound!

These days I generally work in C# and SQL, but in the past I’ve developed in everything from Assembly Language (68000 and x86) through to VB.Net/C#, with plenty of others inbetween. I’ve also done my time in the support/engineering side of IT, so I’m pretty much a geek through and through :-) I’m a firm believer that reading and “best practices” are no substitute for using your brain!

If you want to contact me, you can do so from my blog at http://www.grumpydev.com/
Speaker Presentation List
Silverlight 3 Behaviours
Attached Behaviours are a great way to create reusable object behaviours that can be added and configured entirely from Blend. Steve gives us a quick introduction on how behaviours work, what they are, and demonstrates a few advanced behaviours that are freely available for download.   
TinyIoC
Steve gives us a quick overview of Inversion of Control and his TinyIoC framework which aims to lower the "barrier of entry" for this scary sounding, but actually refreshingly simple, technique.
