When I started writing this post this morning I thought it would be a quick one, but here I am a couple of hours later with eye strain and a thirst for gin and tonic. I think that means we can be quite good at hiding the great developer resources we have available! Hopefully this link list will help. Whereas the UK MSDN blog aims to keep you up to date with the latest Microsoft developer news and events, the folks at the helm of these blogs dive more deeply into the technologies you’re using every day.

Anything missing? Let me know and I’ll add it to the list.
