Lap Around Windows 8

Over the past several days I’ve been introducing a series of screencasts I recently recorded to introduce Windows 8 to developers. The goal is to give developers a high level understanding of Windows 8 so they can have some initial familiarity with the platform without feeling like they have to commit to a technology deep-dive. Each video is short (under five minutes) and to the point. Below are links to all of the videos in the series. Click on the image to start watching and enjoy!
