Fun with Microsoft Robotics Studio

Not bad for a Saturday project down in sunny Buenos Aires! My friend and professional geek Angel "Java" Lopez has recently rekindled his love of distributed computing (and Agents) through MRDS and specifically CCR/DSS. We're going to have a lot more fun with this stuff in the coming weeks. In the mean time check out his great little experiment and download the source code here.

Angel concludes:

All these tools opened my brain. Writing DSS service component is a new way of thinking and programming, something I want to explore for years: how to write objects with one-way message processing, in a distributed and parallel way. I envision some system that model Minsky ideas about the human mind.

Well, it’s a new brave world. Dorothy: we are not in Kansas anymore…

I couldn't agree more!
