Abstract
If you are using C# 3.0 then you are probably using Linq. Linq is an amazing technology that has a lot going on under the covers. Linq expression trees are the key that has enabled Linq To Sql, Linq To Xml, and all of the other Linq To X tools. Come join us and learn what expression trees are, how they work, and how you can build/parse them. Then you will be able to better understand how you can leverage them within your application. We will also take a look at a few frameworks that use expression trees heavily and see how they are using them to make your life easier.
