So much good stuff out there I just had to do it.

• Per Pixel Alpha Blend in C# - This is pretty cool stuff... make your app look like it is cool enough to be on OS X
• The Myth of .NET Purity, Reloaded - Scott talks about the idea that your .NET has to be 100% .NET (And is anything really 100% .NET?)
• Understanding ASP.NET View State - The thing I really enjoy about Scott's MSDN articles is that he takes a subject and then really examines it and rips it apart. These are the kind of articles I am starting to expect at this stage of .NET's life.
• ASP.NET Issue Tracker Starter Kit - Another starter kit possibly written with ASP.NET 2.0? (via Roy via Early)
• Compact Framework Project Manager - An example of using XML files on the pocket pc and sending them around with IR.
• Pocket 1945 - A C# .NET CF Shooter... this is freaking awesome looking.

Books

• Advanced .NET Remoting, Second Edition - Looks like Ingo does not think remoting is dead. (Not yet published)
• NUnit Pocket Reference - I wish they made this full-size, the pocket size is annoying to read. (September)
• Mono: A Developer's Notebook - Over 50 mini-projects that get you up and running with Mono 1.0 (July)
• Inside "Indigo"--Infrastructure for Web Services and Connected Applications - Nice. (2/2005)
