#17: MESSAGING:The primary way developers use Visual Studio is, of course, as an editor. There are many improvements coming to developers that use Visual Studio as a code editor (as well see). However, theres another use of Visual Studio that people dont usually think of, and that is using Visual Studio as a platform itself. With the new extensibility points in the editor itself, there are many ways developers can extend their editing experience itself as well the existing VSIP capabilities of Visual Studio. There are several features coming that will help developers manage the Visual Studio Platform as well.
