20th anniversay Visual Studio Event - Congratulations

In a matter within the week, Visual Studio 2017 will be released (March 7). I cannot help but recollecting the journey, I had with Visual Studio.

I started using Visual since the day 1 it appeared. Actually I was attracted by the Visual IDE even earlier with Visual Basic, Visual InterDev (the precursor for Visual Studio) and all the other Visual programs from Microsoft.

I also used Visual InterDev for some projects at WorldCom. Neither Visual InterDev nor I had anything whatever to do with whatever happened to WorldCom (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/world-class-scandal-at-worldcom/).

I was teaching out of work folks during the bubble period who were eager to acquire Web related technology that can access back-end databases. They loved it all, although Visual InterDev had a long way to go.

Later on I had a lot to read up on Visual Studio for the five books I wrote from (2007 to 2012). They are all displayed on my blogs. They really helped me to write as the software was available free. In order to get a free copy, distributed in one of the Microsoft events in Long Island, NY I traveled from Princeton to Long Island and did an overnight stay.

Wish you a very happy birthday Visual Studio and many more birthdays to come.
I have blogged extensively on Visual Studio about all versions in four of my blogs. Review the following:
