Electric Rain is one of the darlings of the MIX conferences thanks to their early adoption of WPF in creating the very cool StandOut application.

Although the company is based on Colorado, Product Design Manager, Nick Petterssen lives nearby, just outside of Montpelier, VT.

Nick is presenting at tonight's VTdotNET meeting and we're really looking forward to it.

Topic: Designing .NET Apps with Style – A StandOut Case Study
Join Nicholas Petterssen, Director of Product Design for Electric Rain, for a look into how design can differentiate your .NET apps with the new developer/designer workflow Microsoft is touting in .NET 3.0 and beyond. Learn what WPF, Expression Blend and a good interactive designer can do for your projects in the “Sexy App” department and experience how the rich media, animation and 3D capabilities of WPF were utilized by Electric Rain in their next-generation presentation software, StandOut.
