Topic: LINQ and the Future of .NET Data Access
Bruce Johnson, ObjectSharp Consulting

When it comes to the future of data access technologies in .NET, LINQ is the word. But there are a lot of language advances that are built into the use of LINQ, and its various forms of DLINQ and XLINQ. In this session, Bruce Johnson will be demonstrating the power of LINQ, as well as covering areas like extensions methods, lambda expressions, type inferencing and anonymous types which are necessary to make LINQ work. The bottom line is that LINQ is going to be important for all developers and getting an understanding of how it works is a good first step in preparing for its arrival.
