Getting Pushy with SignalR and Reactive Extensions (Rx)

Jim Wooley will be our speaker, and we will be meeting in our normal location: Room 401 of Building 100 at Gwinnett Tech.

SignalR facilitates push notifications over HTTP to a variety of clients. The Reactive Extensions were designed to allow for asynchronous LINQ over push based collections. In this talk, you’ll see how the synergy of these two technologies merge to make otherwise difficult tasks, a push over.
