In the ever-changing world of software development, we must constantly keep up with new technologies. In fact, so much time is spent absorbing new APIs, documentation and hype that we are often left with very little time to improve our coding skills. This session will some discuss general ways to improve code quality that apply to any programming language. In addition, we'll cover several ways to use C# 2.0 (and some future C# 3.0) features to create readable and elegant code.
