The Channel 9 10-4 show is a great resource for those of us trying getting up to speed on what’s new and exciting in Visual Studio 2010/.Net 4.0 (hum… which is about… um… all of us! :). They are bit sized, 20+’ish minute, videos where the team talks about, and then walks you through, the new functionality and features coming in 2010/4.0. From language changes, to ASP.Net, WPF, WCF, MVC, Entity Framework, testing, planning and more, it’s all demo’ed.

If you’re trying to wrap you head around the monster (it’s a “good” monster, but monster none the less… maybe a blue monster? ;) that is 2010/4 then these videos are well worth investing your time in.
