PDC should be renamed CDC for Cloud Developers Conference

More sessions have been added to the PDC 2008 agenda:

https://sessions.microsoftpdc.com/public/sessions.aspx

There are a couple of more Silverlight sessions, now with a total of 13, but what really struck me is that the category with the most sessions is Cloud Services, with 33. Windows 7 has 22, which is still a lot, but 33 is just incredible.

Cloud computing is going to be the big buzz coming out of this conference, and it's started already. Steve Ballmer at a recent keynote said:

By the time we finish our Professional Developers Conference this month, I think you’ll have to say, that there is nobody out there with as wider range of Cloud Computing services as Microsoft including dare I say it, Google.

As I stated in an earlier post, I'm really excited about cloud computing, especially if I'm able to use the technologies that I'm most comfortable with, like C#, .NET, and Visual Studio. So we'll just have to wait and see if everything lives up to the hype, personally I count on it exceeding my expectations.
