Want to win a trip to TechEd 2011?

INETA NorAm is hosting a contest with our partners to see who can build an .NET application making effective use of reusable components to solve a problem.

The Rules:
Any .NET Application (WinForms, ASP.NET, WPF, Silverlight, Windows Phone 7, etc.) built in the last year (since 1/1/2010) using at least 1 component from at least 1 approved vendor. Then make a 3 - 5 minute Camtasia video showing your entry and describing what component(s) you used and why your application is cool. Our judges will review the submissions and the best two will win a scholarship to Tech·Ed 2011, May 16-19 in Atlanta GA including airfare, hotel, and conference pass.

The Judging:
Entries will be judged on four criteria:

  1. Effective use of a component to solve a problem/display data
  2. Innovative use of components
  3. Impact using components (i.e. reduction in lines of code written, increased productivity, etc.)
  4. Most creative use of a component.

Timeline:
Hurry! The submission deadline is March 15, 2011 at Midnight Eastern Standard Time.
