Second Edition, now with more brain-thumping goodness

Just got a copy of the second edition of Advanced .NET Remoting by Ingo (and now also Mario Szpuszta ). I had the good fortune of squeezing my brain through it a while back (and lived!). While the talk continues, you really need to read as much of this

Team System prezzies

In the spirit of the holidays (either late in the case of Hanukkah, Ramadan or Solstice — or early in the case of Christmas or Kwanzaa — and I have no clue what holiday Jedis celebrate around now) the Team System team have brought unto you a gift. A new

How bread (and ASP.NET 2.0) is made

Playing with VS, without installing VS

Forgot to mention in all the Java Resource Center updates, we also added a neat simulator for Visual Studio to the Visual Studio Developer Center . It walks you through the (should be) classic Three apps in 10 minutes scenario. Great to demo to people
