Ouch! You mean we'll have to learn to live without this nice little daily "disturbance" :-( ?

Thanks anyway for the excellent blog... and for your time! Go Sara, Go!

Congratulations Sara Ford!

Did I hear you correctly that you are ending the VS 2008 Tip of the Day and starting work on the VS 2010 Tip of the Day? ;)

It was good reading while it lasted. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Thanks for the amazing series. It really helped us a lot. Whatever is coming next here will be great for sure. I will miss the daily tips coming in my feed reader though.

Hi Sara,

I have enjoyed reading the series on your blog, and have presented tips and tricks talks in New Zealand 6 times now using a lot of your tips and others I collected. Well done, and good luck for your future endeavours.

Don't Go, Sara, Don't Go!

Your tip of the day basically got me using RSS, saved me innumerable hours and clicks, made my VS experience more enjoyable, and put a nice happy face sticker on MS's Giant Wall of Corporate.

Will it make your day if I mention you in the same sentence with Raymond? I hope so.

As others have suggested, "someone" should start blogging VS2010 tips before it's even released. If they're as good as yours have been, you'll have us banging down the doors of our directors' offices to buy it the day it comes out, if not sooner.

Thanks so much for all of these! They've been a fun way to start my programming sessions.

I look forward to the reruns and the new CodePlex stuff too! Hope you have a great holiday. :)

Jitin — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 10:26:09 GMT

You had helped us lot. Spending 208 hours saved somewhere around 2080 hours of mine in grasping VS which become new & interesting for me n my colleagues...

Cheers,

Jitin.

I was a bit late in getting hooked up with your blog and the tips. Thanks very much for all of your hard work. I can honestly say I learned something new with each and every tip.

Have fun, and best of luck in the future...

I caught your blog at the tail-end of the series (maybe the past few months). It has been very helpful in reminding me of VS's features as well as uncovering some that were unknown to me.

Thanks for everything and good luck!

Thank you so much for the hard work and dedication you put into this series. Multiply that by the 1000s of developers and the time they saved or productivity they gained every single day because of your tips to see how much impact these simple little tips have had. Thanks again!

Thanks for the time and effort you've invested into the series, Sara. It's been a great read, and I'm truly going to miss learning features of Visual Studio I never knew existed.

Who knew you could do so much with VS; thanks for all the tips!

As far as this last tip and remembering msinfo32? Well myself coming from a DOS background it's pretty easy to remember winmsd. Strangely start->run...->msinfo32 doesn't work on my XP SP3 system and looks like it's been replaced by

"C:\WINDOWS\pchealth\helpctr\binaries\helpctr.exe" -mode hcp://system/sysinfo/msinfo.xml
