I recently read a nice article by Scott Mitchell on creating a content rater.  He has provided us with a nice ASP.NET user control that is similar to the one seen on MSDN articles.  The control is used by readers to rate the article, or in this case blog, on a scale from one to five. I have taken his control, and made a few...

Caching in ASP.NET is a great feature that should be utilized when necessary.  Unfortunately it can cause a lot of headaches as well - something I learned early on, and I thought I would share. Watch your cache at all times Page output caching will override fragment caching if the value is greater than that of the user...

Every now and then I'll enter some search criteria into Google, and see how some of my pages rank.  Lately I've noticed that the searches that return the title links to the feedback of my blogs, don't look so hot. For example, if you were to type in 'isnumeric in C#' into a Google search, as of this moment, Google will return a link to...

The String class in .NET is extremely powerful, and quite useful, but there are times when you want to avoid it.  A good reason to steer clear of the String class is when you're manipulating a large number of strings.  Instead of doing the usual concatenation of String objects, it's better to use the StringBuilder class...

Lately I've been hearing this buzz about Firefox, which has been getting louder and louder.  I finally gave in, and took a closer look. Firefox Firefox is Mozilla's next generation browser, which was once known as Firebird.  It's Mozilla's latest attempt to dethrone Internet Explorer, and from my initial impressions, it's...

MSDE is a good alternative for a backend when creating your .NET data driven applicaiton.  The great thing about MSDE is that it uses the same engine as SQL Server 2000, and more importantly...it's free!  So if MSDE is free, there must be a catch, right?  Well for one, MSDE doesn't provide any IDE to interact with it,...
