2010 Column Planning
07 August 09 04:55 PM
It’s that time of year once again where I go through my column lineup to see how individual columns are performing and then use that data, along with various other inputs (like what topics I think are emerging and want to get ahead of, etc.) to determine Read More...

Out On Paternity Leave..again
17 June 09 09:31 PM
You may remember the last time this happened .  Well, it’s here once again .  I’ll be away from the office, off of email – and more importantly, not processing your article submissions from 6/22 – 7/20.  Feel free to go ahead and submit Read More...

18 March 09 11:24 PM
I’m sitting here in my hotel room at MIX 2009, where a ton of really huge announcements were made today.  In a much more scaled down attempt at continuing that tradition, I want to announce that starting in May, we are launching a 9 week series focused Read More...

I’m Moving…
04 March 09 09:47 AM
Well, kind of.  One of the things I’ve realized as I’ve watched the traffic patterns for this blog is that you good folks come here more out of interest for stuff related to MSDN Magazine (or actually, thanks to the long tail, developer certifications).  Read More...

Oh yea, and did I mention we had a baby?
13 February 09 11:14 PM
In my last entry, I mentioned that I was back in the office because of the recent events in the economy.  Even with that, I realize that I’ve been pretty sluggish with respect to blogging – probably uncomfortably sluggish for those of you waiting Read More...

Back on the Grid...
27 January 09 03:48 PM
Well, as it turns out based on recent economic events, it doesn't make as much sense for me to go off on parental leave in February.  Therefore, I will be back to reviewing articles shortly.  Perhaps I'll even find the time to do some technical Read More...

Off the Grid in February
17 January 09 10:51 PM
I know it's been a while since I've blogged. It's not because I don't have a lot of stuff to say - I just haven't really had time to sit down and write it all out (I seem to remember Glenn actually having this same problem - perhaps I'll have to try his Read More...

I received my monthly progress report today on how good a job you all feel we're doing on the MSDN Magazine Web site . In short, it seems like the numbers are down a bit from last month, and in culling through the verbatim responses, there was one theme Read More...

Managing Data Streams With C# Iterators
01 July 08 11:33 PM
