Calling all web design and web developer students - event to learn about Microsoft's web technologies

I learnt about this particular event through Mark Johnston's blog and it's a great opportunity for students to learn about Microsoft's web technologies.  It's a full day of goodness with two tracks, one for design students and the other for developers.  Judging from the agenda, I would say that if you are a pure designer who never touches HTML or has no idea what AJAX means then it's a good intro into that world of dabbling a little in building web apps too.
