  • My new blog home at www.snowstormlife.com/blogs/bliz

    I must be crazy. I've left the safety and warmth of http://weblogs.asp.net to move out on my own. No longer will my posts be displayed on that central page, ready to be viewed by the masses. Nope, I'm now on my own, but using .Text as my blog engine. Why? Just for kicks. I created snowstormlife...

  • Finding things...

    Heh. Someone out there needs to know what to do in a snowstorm. How do I know? Well, weblogs.asp.net now has a cool stats section that shows referrers (thanks Scott!). Someone did a Yahoo! search for “what to do in a snowstorm” which returned one of my posts: “Do that newsgroup thing…” So remember, the...

  • Agility...

    Scott Stanfield from Vertigo Software gave a talk last night at the Portland Area Dot Net User Group (PADNUG). He made an interesting comment, with the net of: If you’re going to fail, you want to fail fast. That way you can figure out what went wrong, make changes, and try out something else. If you...

  • Now that's the way a Pocket PC Phone should work!

    I upgraded my sorry Pocket PC phone's operating system to Pocket PC 2003 and a new radio stack. Bingo! Home run! Connectivity issues are a thing of the past. I can finally use IM on the thing. And it synch’s with Exchange automatically every 10 minutes (I set the schedule). And I can confidently...

  • What's in a name...?

    Quite a bit. Otherwise, why would a grown man, driving to work in his car, have tears coming down his face while listening to names being read by children? September 11, 2003. Two years later, and it still seems just like it was yesterday.

  • Getting certified...

    So how did you prepare to take a certification test? Did you use the MS Press study guides? Exam Cram series? Other non-study-guide books? Hands-on experience? Sample exams? Newsgroups? MSDN? GotDotNet? Quickstarts? WWW.ASP.NET ? Other? Did you buddy-up with anyone or go it alone? What worked for you...

  • Chicago, hear me roar...

    I’m sitting through day 1 of a 2-day planning session, with about 100 people in attendance. If I see another presenter get up and say the words “I know you can’t read this slide…” I believe I’ll scream. (Everyone in the Chicago area, keep your ears open, because it will happen.) Please, please, please...

  • E-mail and Pocket PC phone. OK for reading, poor for replying...

    After using the PPC phone for a while, I've decided not to use it to reply to e-mail. Connectivity is the main issue. Sometimes the thing syncs up without a problem. Sometimes I can't connect at all. What's most frustrating is when it quickly and effortlessly connects and pulls down e-mail...
