Things to do in Birmingham on a Wet Saturday #37 – Code Windows Azure Applications

So its a Saturday and its wet outside – what else would you want to do, but write some Azure code. That what was happening yesterday at the Azure Open Space Coding Day. The event was sold out and we spent the day writing code. Many attending were new to Azure, so much of the morning was spent getting folk up and going, but by the afternoon people were syncing data between SQL Server and SQL Azure, playing with Windows Azure queues and tables, testing out ideas for WCF Azure services and even looking at PHP On Azure.
