The Code Room returns with Rory Blythe as executive producer -- former co-host of Dot Net Rocks and Microsoft Evangelist.   Four experts on Windows XP Embedded and the Compact Framework are challenged with building a fully functioning kiosk that implements Bluetooth, SQL Server Mobile, and Windows XP Embedded technologies.

The Code Room is a 1/2 hour pilot TV show that exposes technologists to the latest tools and technologies for tackling real-world software development issues. This professionally produced & directed TV show highlights the social, teaming, and technical challenges faced when attempting to complete a software development project.

The Code Room is developed around the free MSDN Developer Events held almost 500 times throughout the year. Each episode focuses on a topic presented at the event. In addition, three attendees are selected from the audience to write functioning code using the principles and concepts discussed in the presentation. By exposing the viewers to the detailed information from the event presentation and seeing the real world application of that information that they can actually use themselves, a viewer takes away a deep understanding of the topic.
