Hurray!  Got tickets for Radiohead tomorrow night in Seattle (well not Seattle, Auburn, suburb, whatever).

Q .  How do I remove an individual page from having to be forms authenticated to view it?  I don't want to reorganize my site to have a wide open directory containing only one page.  I just want this one page accessible.  It is a registration page for...

If you're like me, you heard about word-wrap in Visual Studio and weren't impressed.  Maybe you read this article , or maybe you watched this MSDN TV episode .  But you could not see a use for it.  You're detail oriented.  You take pains to format your...

How does one set the vdir authentication methods in a VS web setup and deployment project?  Basically, I would like to turn off anon and windows integrated and turn on basic auth with my setup.  I hope I don't need a custom action for this.  Looking for...

Space.com has some pictures of Mars taken by Hubble this week.  K and I checked out the real thing last night.  The sky was perfect for it, but doesn't look like people up in Seattle will be able to see it tonight.

How sad.  I am not included in this .

Just finished another episode of the .NET show .  I am one of those nerds that downloads the 215mb version and plays it fullscreen locally.  Chris Sells ' demos using the MapPoint web services and the Messenger sockets programming was pretty sweet.  Have...

Scylla.org has a link to a story about a chess team nerd versus a blonde .  Funny stuff.

I just opened a project that I hadn't touched in quite some time and noticed that I was building up my SQL statements by concatenation, which as we all know is a bad idea.  I then felt that old compulsion to start rewriting -- this time to use OleDbParameters...

Microsoft, as you may know, has a great internship program.  We expect a lot from our interns.  They usually learn a lot while they're with us and we expect them to work hard and produce naturally.  This time of year in Redmond, the days are getting shorter...

I came across Robota by way of Slashdot today  Robota is an “film book” by Doug Chiang , the Concept Art Director of the Star Wars prequels, telling another story human enslavement by machines and the glorious rebellion.  He has two trailers for it. ...

Wow.  It seems ATI will be replacing nVidia inside the next XBOX.  Here are a couple links. Xbox 2 powered by ATi on Spong.com Microsoft books ATI for Xbox 2 chipset gig on The Register ATI wins Xbox deal from Nvidia, stock surges on MoneyCentral

So Friday, I got to spend some time in System.XML.  First time in it actually, sad to say.  Glad to see my old buddies of selectNodes, selectSingleNode, load, loadXML, etc. of ol' MSXML had their Pascal-cased equivalents in .NET.  Hope to take advantage...

When I think about all the different tools for reading and writing blogs today, the early days of MP3 culture comes to my mind.  I remember the not-so simple act of taking a song off a disc and putting it on my computer.  I had a tool for ripping, a tool...

I have a web project where all my strings are in a satellite resource assembly.  As a result, I have been deleting the resx files that are created with each new web form.  The annoying thing is that when I open up a web form and click the designer, Visual...

Given that prototype code has a way of becoming ship code and that one usually doesn't have a whole lot of time to play with a prototype, should one take the time to "do it right" or just mock up as many features as you can in your timeframe?    ...

Nobody wants to post a link to a story that is old news.  All you aggregator writers, how about a “check this link” feature against the recent entries in your blog roll?  That way when I post the Developer Roadmap, I won't feel bad when I realize Scoble...
