BodyJam just keeps getting better. Here in Manila, Body Jam 49 has just been launched weeks ago and we’re yet to see the “advanced” options which I think was introduced in Body Jam 47. Now that I enjoy Body Jam 49, I think this one looks exciting as well.

An Unfortunate SM North Edsa IMAX Experience

With the recent changes SM North EDSA has done with its structure, they got my attention once more. I gave up on SM since the arrival of TriNoma – not that I no longer visit them but I spend more time roaming around in TriNoma because of the newer facilities and better malling experience. SM somehow got me back upon the addition of certain structures such as the Skygarden and the improvement made on SM Annex.

Upon learning that a new IMAX theater is being constructed in the mall, I got to excited to learn about the details. Later on, they announced that the theater’s opening will coincide on the opening day of Harry Potter 6. I immediately made a note on my Facebook account and invited people to watch with me of course on their own pockets. It’s just that I’ll make an advanced reservation for them.

Silverlight 3.0 Released!

I am a bit excited with the release of Silverlight 3.0 and while searching the pages of Silverlight, a download link has been made available for the public to get the Released To Web (RTW) version. Likewise, developers can also take advantage of the Silverlight 3.0 SDK though you need to remove any beta pre-RTW Silverlight 3.0 SDK. Aside from that, Silverlight 3.0 Tools for Visual Studio 2008 is also available for download.

Here are some useful links that you can check out (links open in a new window):

• Silverlight 3.0 RTW Download Page
• Silverlight 3.0 SDK
• Silverlight 3.0 Tools for Visual Studio 2008 SP1

Key improvements for the release are grouped into 4 categories:

• Media: GPU hardware acceleration, new codec support (H.264, AAC, MPEG-4), raw bitstream Audio/Video API, and improved logging for media analytics
• Graphics: GPU Acceleration and hardware compositing, perspective 3D, bitmap and pixel API, pixel shader effects, and Deep Zoom improvements
• Application development: Deep linking, navigation and SEO, improved text quality, multi-touch support, 60+ controls available, and library caching support
• Data: Data-binding improvements, validation error templates, server data push improvements, binary XML networking support, and multi-tier REST data support

Still, I am waiting for the launch of the site See The Light (www.seethelight.com). It is already 10 July 2009 here in Manila but perhaps the launch of the site would be the time in the US. 🙂

IMAX @ SM North Edsa

I made a note in my Facebook account stating that an IMAX Theater is being constructed in SM North Edsa. All the while, I thought that the construction at SM Cinema 12 was for the improvement of the cinema house for rental purposes (some of the theaters of SM North are being used for plays, nursing reviews, mini concerts, etc) other than cinema showing but was surprised that it was IMAX is being constructed there.

This after, I got the chance to pass by and now they are pre-selling tickets to “Harry Potter” n July 16 in IMAX in SM North for 400 pesos. Now, as someone who lives near SM North, I hope I won’t let this chance pass. I’m watching HP at IMAX this time without the hassle of going to SM Mall of Asia. The guy at the booth (where they pre-sell) told me that they have a better experience as compared to SM MOA. Yeah right, enough of marketing, I’ll see it when I watch then.

Now, who wants to watch with me? He he he.

Renewed

I finally got word from Microsoft that I was renewed as a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) for ASP/ASP.NET for another year!

Thank you Microsoft and I hope my contributions did really help a lot of people!  The new fiscal year is exciting starting with Windows 7 as well as Visual Studio 2010.
