The war isn't over. This is the best source I've found for whats' still happening http://dear_raed.blogspot.com/ , funny, honest and thought-provoking, if your only source of information about Iraq is what the mainstream media portrays (for or against...), do…
Nope, not a porn site, remember the little expandable boxes on MSDN (before it went all 1996)...this is doing pretty much the same thing... http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/WebPartsControl.asp
Over the years I've pretty much used every anti-spam measure in existence. The only one I've found that actually works (and it is pretty much faultless, 100+ spams caught daily, 0 false positives!) is SpamNet, this has recently become pay-ware ($3.99 a month…

I'm having one of my 'I should have gone to work for Microsoft' moments...As you may have read before, I had an interview a few years ago (is it really four years...damn!!!) and long story short, I didn't take the job. My problem at the moment is that what I…
I am a huge Douglas Coupland fan...so bear that in mind when reading this reviewlet! The story of Hey Nostradamus! is about a high-school massacre in Canada in the year 1988. The first chapter concerns the story of a girl who is killed in the massacre, Cheryl…
I love Harry Potter books, I've just finished reading the new book, it's long but it is a book which will keep you reading until the end (I've read it in a little over 12 hours). Very good book, which progresses the story in many ways (and doesn't feature as…
Perhaps a true revolution is starting, this article from Wired basically points out that despite having significantly fewer resources, Apple is still surviving - and prospering. This got me to thinking, the Open Source movement thus far has been largely…
One of the most frequent queries about dynamically added controls is how to get their values after postback... This is not as easy as it sounds if the value of these controls has a direct impact on the next set of controls bound to the page. There are various…
Sorry I haven't posted for the last day and a bit...we've been getting RC3 of our Portal project ready for delivery. The Portal is able to support two authentication mechanisms, Passport and Forms. Forms has worked perfectly from day one but the Passport has…

You can find some of the best 3d screensavers I've seen in a while here. They really are pretty amazing, and come with full source code - if you fancy writing some yourself (oh and you can code OpenGL in C++)!
I've started working on a modified version of BlogX. So you may notice a few features disappearing over the next few days / weeks. You will also notice new features appearing. I am disabling comments for the time being, if you feel a real need to comment on…

I'm late for work (this is not unusual, I work strange hours). Anyway, does anyone have any opinions of Flash MX as a front end for distributed .NET apps. I plan to spend some time looking at this, looks like you can do decent interactions with web services. I…
I write more later, but I found it very interesting (oh and it has a sex scene...well kind of!). Lots of people have written that they found the bit with the Architect incomprehensible...I found it ok to be honest. Oh, and stay until after the credits, there's…
