Unit Testing in all VS .NET 2005 Editions: +1

I had really spent any time using VSTS Beta 2 bits for Whidbey--sadly enough, I just don't have the cycles lately. In putting about, however, I was really enamored with the fact that the unit testing functionality in the IDE was even more seamless

MSDN/VSTS Details: First Sign of the Apocalypse

Actually, there have been many signs of the Apocalypse, most of which have involved Xtina, Gallagher, or both (and none of which involve the far superior Apocalypse 91 flavor of the end of time). But I digress and exaggerate, all without even breaking

VS.NET Linking with ASP.NET Projects

Nope. Not supported. Silly.This would be an easy yet solid fix for Whidb(e)y. I want linked files for ASP.NET just like I have them for other types of projects. And I want them now. Bleh, duplicate copies vs. extra multiproject solutions, choose your

NewsGator case study: Triple Point Technology, Inc.

Greg seems to be a leading source of cool ideas for using RSS in creative ways so I wasn't too surprised to see a new NewsGator case study on how one company are using feeds to enhance distributed notifications. Cool stuff, and this type of application

Eric Gunnerson Has a Feed

Eric GunnersonEric's was the .NET first book I could get my hands on way back when, and it still stands up as a nice gentile introduction to C#. He's also into some way crazy robotic home automation stuff if I recall correctly, way beyond just a simple

pointless ?

Hmm. Well my vote would be that wrapping it in RSS is useless but then I stop myself and remember that anything pointing out that the loathsome Mets are in last place can't really be entirely useless. Is it just me, or is this an entirely pointless use

Charlies Angels 2: Full Throttle

Utterly random but irrefutable: The G in McG stands for genius. He is the Stephen J. Cannell for our time. Nets in 8.

MSHTML Wrapper, Very Sweet

If you've ever wanted a serious headstart on wrapping your own WYSIWYG html editor for a WinForms app, here you go. I played with it briefly and it should take away most if not all the headache of making your own wrapper. Very nice, Nikhil.

HttpBrowserCapabilities

I haven't had to work with this directly that much, most of what I've done recently has been explicitly for uplevel browsers. Such a luxury. I was helping a friend with some templating code for a redesign of his site last night and two things leapt out

Concurrency and Other Data Topics from Frans

Frans is the LLBLGen, one of the first (and imo, better) data layer generators out there. He's also been posting some pretty interesting reads on a variety of things, many of them, surprisingly enough, relating to data layers and their attendant architecture.I

Incremental RSS Feeds

One of the things that never really felt intuitive when I was plunking around with my own aggregator in the hazy days before NewsGator was the notion of RSS as a static feed of post items. While I understood how it worked and why this historically probably

Hotter than the Finest Incense, Speedier than a First-Run DVD Bootleg

Saturday, about 20 feet outside my building the hottest sidewalk retail action on John Street was a guy with about 100 decks of Defense Dept's Iraqi-Most-Wanted cards. I, however, passed on his fine wares and bought my usual Saturday Rolex, light on the

Opera Standards Compliant

Well to read all the salvos reported by CNet and Opera's own site, I had generally been of the impression that Opera was seriously standards compliant. Possibly even to a greater tune than Mozilla. Then I started to kick it's tires more and more. Maybe

I Can't Quit the IE Habit

I repaved my machine a week or so ago and was going to try and force myself to use Mozilla as my primary browser, once and for all. And then I fell right off the wagon again--this time with C/2-type velocity, I didn't even get to the install. Well I did,
