It's been a while, years in fact since I updated this blog, but last week something happened that gave Pixie (I'll tell you all about that in another post) a great push and this week I have very good reason to get out and push too! Damien Mulley started a concept called the Tuesday Push. The idea is that each week a company is selected and...

We have been trying to track down a problem with our blog aggregator software B.AG which is currently powering INDA's blog aggregator at www.developers.ie/blogs. We recently upgraded the server to Windows Server 2003 SP1 and for some reason, threads were simply disappearing from our custom threadpool and the application logging which uses...

Following on from my recent post about this year's TechEd Europe. You can now watch some of Kimberly and Rafal's presentations online at http://www.microsoft.com/uk/technet/itsshowtime/.

Once again, Microsoft pulled off its annual TechEd conference without a hitch. If you’ve never been to TechEd, then it would be difficult to imagine the sheer scale of the event.

They can be downloaded from here. Talking with developers afterwards in the bar, it was really interesting to see how many of them had heard of...

Recently, I've been getting inundated with comment SPAM on my blog... Luckily Miguel Jimenez has implemented a cool little Captcha control which is easily integrated with .Text to provide protected from the Viagra salespeople. The control has now been installed on this blog! BTW - Make sure you install the v1.2 update, although the...

Yesterday evening, night and the early hours of this morning … (very sore head now) I had the pleasure of meeting Christian Weyer who via INETA was speaking IrishDev.ie’s Christmas Cinema Party. Christian started off the evening with an excellent talk on the realities we are faced with when building web services. Unlike most talks...

Via Scott Mitchell... Brian Bischof has put together some very interesting tips based on experience with self-publishing. There's tons of interesting stuff on how to write and publish your own book about a technical subject. I especially like the section on "The Bookstore Scam": "Oh yeah - here's something I learned about how bookstores work...

Hervey has announced the availability of WSE 2.0 SP2 on MSDN.

Andres has released the code for an implementation of WS-ReliableMessaging via his blog here. I've taken a quick look at the code and it looks good. There was quite a bit of talk a few months back about how WS-ReliableMessaging should be implemented. The discussion mainly revolved around where the RM Sequence should be created and...

TestDriven.NET, a handy addin for Visual Studio which allows you to run unit tests from pretty much anywhere from within VS.NET was released as version 1.0 yesterday...

When we launched INDA at www.developers.ie a couple of weeks ago, we integrated the .Text blog engine so that our members (most of whom were new to blogging) could have their own blogs on the site. I also created a blog there, but soon I was getting frustrated by having to cross post blog entries both on my own blog here at...
