Ok, it’s time for me to write again. I’m sorry for the lapse but I haven’t felt like I have had much to say over these last few months. Maybe this post will help with that.So on Tuesday I attended an MSDN tech event presented by Ron Cundiff. It covered Visual Studio Team Edition for [...]

No longer will the best seats go to the die hard fans. Those that waited in line for 3 days before the box office opens to claim their rightful spot as number one fan. No no, now it goes to the people with the money. In case you missed the article, the NY Times is [...]

So every other blog I read is talking about it so I figured I needed to see what the big deal is with Share Your OPML. Well it’s exactly what it says, so that’s good, a little truth in marketing. Beyond that it lets you see who else subscribes to your feeds, and compare your [...]

Hey Mike, sorry I haven’t been as entertaining this week
  So anyways, what’s been going on this week? Well it’s been somewhat hectic, and I’ve had several things to post about but no time to do it. So I guess I’ll just do a week in review sort of thing and hopefully will have [...]

So to keep the ball rolling, I figure I might divulge what I’ve been up to in the past few months. Nothing spectacular, so if you are busy you can just come back later, I promise you won’t miss much.For the overly bored, though, I’ll try to at least entertain you for the five minutes [...]

Ok, so let’s try this again…That is, let’s try this whole blogging thing again. Sadly, one of my main reasons for not wanting to blog of late is I really hated the layout of my site. So step 1, fix that. Well, temporarily at least, as I’ve just turned back to the default wordpress theme [...]

Alright, now before all three people who read this start hanging me for the title of the post, or poo gets flung by all the code monkeys around the net, I am not implying that PowerBuilder is an upgrade to .NET. However, since I haven’t posted in a while and there has been ample time [...]

So of late, when I haven’t been bogged down at work trying to push out this project for it’s release date, I’ve been going back to my roots. That is I’ve started programming in C again. Wow, it had been a while and took a few moments to realize how much work I have to [...]

Turned off trackbacks today…. I wasn’t sure if I should feel honored or what, but I was getting spam trackbacks and I’d rather not hurt my google ratings, as non-existant as they may be because of something like that. Comments should still work fine though.

Ahh, what looks to be the last long night for a while is over and already the weight seems to be lifting. There are still issues of course, and bugs to be fixed, waiting on the client for a few more specifications that have taken a good month to deliver….So as I feel my eyes [...]

So I think I jinxed myself earlier with that post about it being slow. I’m now on hour 16 at the office with no end in sight. Oh well though, I’m on a roll and having fun sitting here by myself with my music cranked and my fingers typing furiously at the keyboard. It feels [...]

So one of the most fun and yet boring times of a project is that end phase where you are pushing out bug fixes to the first round of testing. I think my favorite part of it all is sitting in a room with the rest of the devs and going through the list of [...]

So I grabbed a link to an article by Jakob Nielsen, a name that I’ve been finding more and more on the web the last few months. Basically the Usability Guy, who my first web encounter with was on DesignByFire in an article entitled “Design Eye for the Usability Guy”. Anyways, he posts a Top [...]

I got the first round of pictures up in the images section. Just got those today from Graduation a few months back. Thanks Vito!
