Though I'd provide an update of stuff I'm working on for this site; which will be finished eventually finding time to do it is pretty tricky. Anyway, I've been delving deep into the core of .TEXT and working out how things fit together. Plan is to develop a…

The saga continues, I can recieve mail OK, but I can't send it from my server; now, it works from the smtp local server on my main machine so I don't think it's a Firewall thing - I'm very confused! So if anyone has any idea why,please let me know!
This one drove me nuts for a while, I have an smtp server running on my server, but occasionally, the SMTP administration snapin would disappear for no particular reason. This is needless to say VERY annoying - as there's not other effective way to administer…
Free XML editor...http://www.xmlcooktop.com/ UPDATE: Sorry, forgot to mention where I found it...via John Mandia's blog
On Dave Winer's Test Site...fantastic picture of Hurricane Isabel- now my new wallpaper :)
I was asked if I was going to the PDC this year...I would love nothing more than to go...but with a $2000 registration fee, and close to 3500 for travel and accommodation...let's just say I won't be going. Would it really be so hard to hold one of these in…
Further to my earlier bit on Threading, this site has some brilliant (fairly advanced) examples on various things...including a custom Thread Pool
Now this is very cool...why VS.NET doesn't have this built in is beyond me...Visual XSLT pretty much all you need for XSLT development within Visual Studio .NET...costs $295 for commercial users but they have an educational license (which I think is always a…
I have recently been having a look at threading in ASP.NET, found this excellent article from June 2003 which is a pretty good introduction to the whole thorny issue. Also found a useful example from the 'always worth a look' C# Corner...here
Found this on the Furrygoat site, this is a truly excellent site on the GoF design patterns (you'll see this alot, it refers to this book - the original book on design patterns). If you're creating applications in any language, I really recommend you get at…
Have a read at this article on implementing the SIngleton pattern in C#. No idea what I'm on about? Well, the Singleton Pattern isn't a knitting method for the lonely, it's one of the most important techniques for ensuring that two people - on the web its'…
Reproduced here for your delictation...from here Scott Hanselman's Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tools List Roy Osherove suggested that I post a list of the contents of my C:/UTILS folder. Everyone collects utilities, and most folks have a list of a few…
I wrote on Brian Desmond's blog about how good a C# (open source of course!) statistics system would be...this got me thinking - it wouldn't be that hard to write one based on an HttpHandler. I don't really want to log accesses to graphics etc...and if I did,…
I love the articles which Joel Spolsky writes, I already linked in an earlier post to an interview he did about social software and forums in particular (I'll dig out the link tomorrow - and the search function is almost ready :-)). Found a link via Scoble and…
I'm sick...as I write this I'm sitting in bed watching 'Pet Rescue' - which for those who don't know is a show about a pet rescue center... I hate being ill - I kind of know the reason this time - too little sleep, too much stress has knackered my immune…
I should be asleep...well that was the plan. I have a project to complete tomorrow - well, I'll be doing QA all weekend and bug-hunting etc...but the development will finish tomorrow. We're trying to sort out our development process at the moment at work,…
Just read an entry over on Sara Williams blog regarding CS degrees and developers. I read an essay a few weeks ago by Paul Graham called Hackers & Painters, which basically puts forward the view that developers are not just engineers. I admit that in some…
Everybody has been writing about it...this is the best Matrix screensaver I've ever seen (and I've seen a LOT...sad obsessive, perhaps :-)) link
I really have to start writing in this thing every day.... I wrote the previous entry about the Matrix and it got me thinking - I am waiting to see the Matrix Reloaded until I can go with my Dad. THis may seem strange, that a 30 year old guy goes to see films…
Feeling a bit unmotivated. I spent the weekend finishing RC2 of this portal application we're working on (stay tuned, I'll be able to tell you more soon...including some code tips!). As a result I'm not really in a coding mood today - I'm very mood driven. So,…
