I am very proud, and excited, to announce that I will soon join IdentityMine as a Senior UX Developer! IdentityMine specializes in designing and developing excellent user experiences via technologies like WPF, Silverlight, and Microsoft Surface. The firm is very well-known and respected in the Microsoft Client App Dev space, so I’m thrilled to join their ranks and help build awesome applications.
Despite my excitement over this new opportunity, I must admit that I will miss working at Infragistics. I am leaving behind a lot of talented, friendly, energetic people there, and wish the best for all of them. Sometimes in life, you just “gotta do what ya gotta do.” This is one of those times for me.
I have a one-way ticket to Seattle for tonight. See you there…

Congratulations on your new job.

Congrats on the move and the new job. Just finished digesting your MVVM article (good stuff). I’d love to meet up and discuss using MVVM on complex WPF apps for multi-touch systems (been doing it for a while myself) and give you some suggestions for how best to enjoy Seattle. Did you decide to live right in the city?

Hi Josh
Sorry to add a comment unrelated post, but without any contact in your about page .. !
In response to your article

I devised a convention-over-configuration approach to ViewModel/Model mappings.
See

Thanks for the great article — it was a huge jumpstart into wpf mvvm.
