Thanks Mike. "Thanks to everyone who submitted a video for our first-ever Show Off event at PDC05. We had 25 total submissions, and we had time to show 22 of them at Thursday night's 2-hour event. You can find all of the submitted videos on Channel 9 under the showoff tag. Please leave comments and feedback for each video so we know what to look for next time.
Interestingly enough, because we came up with the idea so late in the game, we were never able to announce Show Off to all of the PDC05 attendees. It wasn't printed in the PDC05 program guide, and it wasn't mentioned until just before the keynote on day 3. We were able to announce it using the Scarab plasma monitors that were scattered throughout the Los Angeles Convention Center, and I think that helped a lot. It was through blogging, podcasts, and .NET Rocks! that we were able to get the word out. We always intended this to be a community event, and the power of community helped make it a success.
