Visual Studio 2005 Beta!

It's finally out - Visual Studio 2005 and .NET Framework 2.0 Beta 1! Here are the relevant links:

• VS 2005 Beta Developer Center - portal for all VS 2005 Beta related information, including links to download.
• VS 2005 Express Products - described as “lightweight, easy to use, easy to learn tools for hobbyists, enthusiasts, and students to learn and evaluate programming for Windows.“
• VS 2005 Beta Online Documentation
• MSDN Product Feedback Center - a great place to report bugs and make suggestions.

Releasing a product (even a Beta) after months of hard work is such a great feeling! I am particularly excited about the Express products, since they offer beginners a super-easy way to get a feel for programming on the Windows platform. See how simple it is to write your own application to keep track of your movie collection or a screen saver that displays RSS feeds.

Don't miss the Summer of Express Contest on Channel 9! And here is Scoble's nice summary post on the new annoucements.
