What happens when you get a dev and turn him into a developer evangelist you get Jason Mauer. While at PDC Underground TechZulu’s Geoffrey Emery Interviews Jason Mauer about what it takes to be a developer evangelist and what he was interested in at PDC which includes Windows 7 , Workflow 4, Visual Studio 10 and developing XNA. The XNA Framework is a set of managed libraries for Windows, the Xbox 360, and Zune. These libraries enable you to be more productive by using a set of unified class libraries to develop C# games. If you are new to game programming, or just want to review the basic steps toward getting a simple game up and running in XNA Game Studio, see the how-to articles in Game Programming Basics. Once you develop the game using this technology you can launch on the Zune or Xbox live via their online store a very cool technology. All this and more in a great interview from Jason Mauer.

5 Ways to increase your audience and grow your community with Scott Hanselman
Written by Geoffrey Emery   
Friday, 19 December 2008 11:35

While at the PDC Underground TechZulu’s Geoffrey Emery got a chance to talk with Scott Hanselman about what it takes to grow and maintain a large audience. Scott’s blog is currently generating around 35,000 feed subscribers and he has a diverse amount of content including podcasts, tutorials, multi subject blog posts. One of my favorite parts of this interview is when Scott brings up the point about not posting bile. I really like this statement and the keeping the web positive not that this means that you need to not be critical but there is definitely ways you can state things that allow you stay positive and relevant. Scott continues to lay down some great knowledge by bringing up the point of saving key strokes. If you think that the email would serve to help more then just the person then make it a blog post. I couldn’t agree this statement more. Get the information out there and let the search engines index it that way when someone needs it today or two years from now it will be there. All this and more in a great interview.
