i downloaded the developer preview for windows 8 within minutes of it being announced during the major //build conference in september 2011. since then, i've been working with windows 8 on both a laptop and a slate and have come to love several features. i wrote about the top 10 features i think developers will love in this article and have developed this into a talk.

i had a great time presenting this talk on june 20th to an international audience through the linkedin .net user group (lidnug) . in this presentation i elaborated on those features as well as an 11th (you may recall my earlier series on the portable class library ). this presentation was done entirely on a samsung series 7 slate, including the live coding examples. the session was recorded and the full 90 minutes are posted here for you.
