I announced earlier this week that we've joined forces with the WCF/WF teams at Microsoft to produce a weekly screencast on ramping-up with these .NET 3.0 technologies. This is the first installment in the series, entitled Creating your First WCF Service in Visual Studio 2008.

This short video guides you through how to create your first WCF Service from scratch in VS2008 – defining a data contract, a service contract, and testing/hosting the service using the new built-in WCF tools found in VS2008.

Note: I want each of these screencasts to have a unique URI, hence the separate post. Apologies if you've already seen this clip.
