    technology dilema

    Hello EveryOne,

    Happy New Year.

    Even though I am not a newbie in development and .NET technology since so far, I have worked on .NET 2.0 technologies and now that I want start learning newer technologies, I am currently very confused on how to proceed.

    New technologies I am considering consist of AJAX, Workflow, WCF and WPF

    Here is my dilemma:
    1. Where should I start first?
    2. Which technology would allow me quicker understanding?
    3. Is there any specific sequence to this learning?

    I understand the questions might be stupid; however, this would help me concentrate on one instead of all over the place and archiving nothing.

    I thank everyone in advance.

    Thanks

    Well, that really depends on what type of problems you are trying to solve. I have no problem with learning something solely for the sake of knowledge, but we can't really help you chose what to learn without knowing the end goal.

    Try windowsclient.net - they do give you a general idea as well as detailed articles\examples, and may be you can learn from there. I would start from WPF.

    What sort of development do you do (or want to do)?

    If it's more web-based, then learn AJAX.

    If it's more client-based, then learn WPF (or Silverlight for the web).

    WCF is the newer form of web services - I'd recommend learning it no matter what.

    Learn at least WPF and WCF before learning WF.
