Microsoft launched the new productivity tools recently. Basically it refers to Office 2010, Visio and SharePoint... My colleagues and I were privileged to attend the launch at Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort (IR).
Singapore's 2nd IR was still very much work in progress. This is the panoramic view with the rest of Marina South and the floating platform. Click for image for the bigger picture.
On the way to the Sands...
It was really early. The Flyer was starting to move lethargically...
Workers having the morning brief... aka the first parade.
An improvised safety helmet that keeps the scorching sun away as well...
Looking out from inside the mall...
A close up at the hull of the sky garden...
From far the IR looks like a flight deck/hangar with its doors opening. Imagine space crafts from Star Wars landing and taking off.
The helix bridge was more like a wind tunnel of sort. Can you imagine Gundam propelling out through it? :p
This is Steve Ballmer giving the keynote speech.
I will not bore you with the details of the launch. Overall, it was a nice experience to participate in the convention at MBS. If you are thinking of visiting MBS to look around, perhaps you would want to wait till more shops in the mall are opened.
P.S. I was disappointed that Steve did not do "the dance" or the "developers developers" chant on the stage. Perhaps, the few developers there (including my colleagues and myself) were too insignificant to be treated to such a show.
