So you've stumbled across this page (Or been pointed at it be me lol) and think to yourself, what the hell is this guy on about.
Let's start at the start, because I haven't reached an end point yet.
Who am I?
My name is Sean Costain and I contacted Microsoft to become representative for them within the university I attend(Griffith University - Gold Coast Campus [http://www.griffith.edu.au]). I am studying a Bachelor of Multimedia. With an aim for Game design.
Why did I do this?
It sounded like a challenge and like a lot of fun. Also gives me the right to add more letters after my name, looks good on a resume and I should learn a lot which will help me get a career into the area I wish to pursue.
But what does it all mean?
Well, basically, I have to hold 2 seminars on Microsoft technology within a semester. This technology branches from XP/Vista through to XNA programming, down to using Visual Studio for AJAX programming and a dash of innovative technology examination, like the new Silverlight and Expression software.
How will I judge it Successful?
To make this endeavour successful, I need the help and commitment of my fellow students at Griffith. If I can get great turnouts for seminars, there is a decent chance I might up the amount per semester. As there is a whole lot of gear to learn, and University only teaches you a little bit.
So that's it, the start of an interesting endeavour. Let's see where the journey takes me.
