Glenn Block

Another ALT.NET guy at Microsoft

Talking about Prism with InfoQ

Recently at the ALT.NET Summit, I got a chance to sit down with Greg Young to discuss the work we've been doing in our new Composite Application Guidance (Prism). In the interview we talk about the guidance, what technical and architectural challenges it addresses including specific to WPF,how it differs from CAB, and how customers have been working with us to build it.

Watching now. Good stuff so far (openness, good video/audio quality, good questions).

[Silly]

Bah... so much for journalism. Shame on Greg for not asking the tough questions that inquiring minds want to know!

Here, let me do the hard work

"Glenn Block, are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist Party?"

"Do you prefer TP to spool off the top or bottom?"

"Coke or Pepsi?"

"What is your carbon footprint?"

Whew those are tough questions, I'll take a shot though being that this is a less stressful medium. :)

Glenn is a PM for the new Managed Extensibility Framework in .NET 4.0. Prior to Microsoft, he worked for 10 years in various startups and ISVs wearing many different hats all related to developing software. Glenn has been writing code practically since the time he learned how to ride a bicycle. When he's not writing code, he's continuously improving on ways to build better software. Glenn is a geek at heart and spends a good portion of the rest of this time spreading that geekdom through conferences, and the community through groups such as ALT.NET. When he's not working and playing with technology, he spends his time with his wife and four year old daughter either at their Seattle apartment or at one of the local coffee shops.
