I have an HTC Windows Mobile phone (touch screen + keyboard). For the last several weeks, I’ve been using a trial version of Twikini to access my Twitter stream . I really got to like it. There are a few things I’d like improved. For...
June is just a week away. That’s insane. It’s cliché to say it, but time goes so fast. My son is already four months old, and my daughter is getting hilariouser by the moment. (I know some of you may not consider hilariouser a...
On Friday, April 17, Jeffrey Palermo will be giving a full-day seminar on ASP.NET MVC at UWM in Milwaukee. The event isn’t free, but is affordable at $125 – cheap for a day-long training session, especially from someone of Jeffrey’s caliber. If...
I've been writing code with curly braces for a dozen years or so, starting with C++ in college, then JavaScript for many, many years, and for the last few years, C#. In all that time, I have been a fan of putting the opening curly brace on the...
I'm very excited to announce that we are planning the first ever GiveCamp in the Milwaukee area: GiveCamp MKE . In fact, it's one of the first GiveCamps anywhere. "What's a GiveCamp?", you ask. In short, it is an opportunity...

I've been using the free version of TimeSnapper off and on for some time now, but pretty regularly over the last few weeks since I started my new job. I'm doing billable work again, and am notoriously bad at getting my time entered. ...
Anyone know if there is a way to remove the Windows-Q hotkey from Office Communicator? That is my hotkey of choice for one of my favorite utilities (SlickRun). With Communicator "stealing" this hotkey, I've had to map SlickRun...
This is pretty exciting. Chris Pietschmann , an MVP, a friend of mine, a committee member of the WI .NET Users Group , developer of Virtual Earth controls , and an independent consultant I have worked with in the recent past, has three MSDN Premium...
Just got a book in the mail from Amazon: Embedded Programming with the Microsoft .NET Micro Framework . It was only about $6 from the "Used and New" section of alternate sellers. An upcoming project at work is currently planned for Compact...
Tomorrow (Saturday) is the first ever Fox Valley Day of .NET in Appleton, WI. I'm planning to attend, and if you're anywhere in the area, and are a software developer, I'd recommend you go as well. They have a good looking lineup...
Gerry recently posted an interesting article about the mindsets of software developers and software companies. We had talked about this same topic on the phone for a while a couple days ago. The same phrase that jumped out at me then also...
I don't remember how I found it in the first place anymore, but I recently started listening to a new podcast called PC Load Letter . It's two guys that used to work together on Subversion (and now work together at Google) talking about...
