So there hasn't  been much content on this weblog for a while (actually, you could argue there has never been any real content).  There are a few reasons for this - I have been busy, I would like to avoid certain topics that I don't feel can be very productively discussed by me on a public weblog, and I haven't really thought of a theme for what I put up here.  This may be changing soon because I am starting to become very involved with automated software testing at work and it will become important to explain a lot of the ideas I have on the topic.  And I will probablly want to document my thinking and how it evolves in this domain area.  I may even publish some of my writings in the Stories area of this web site and use another feature of Radio that I haven' looked at yet.

On another topic: has anyone else noticed that Apress is putting out some fine .NET books?  Even for someone who is not working with C#, there are books that are really helpful in understanding various areas of the .NET world.  My list (deliberately not mentioning C# books) includes "The Essential Guide to Managed Extensions for C++" by Siva Challa and Artur Laksberg and "Internationalization and Localization Using Microsoft .NET" by Nick Symmonds.

This weekend I received another book that I have to add to the list.  It's "Advanced .NET Remoting" by Ingo Rammer.  I'm up to chapter 4 and I have gone from knowing nothing about .NET remoting to understanding it at a intermediate level.  The author got me here with a clear explanation of the concepts of remoting and many small examples that did a great job illustrating each point that he wanted to make.  Even though I haven't even hit the halfway point, I feel like I have already gotten my moneys worth.  Recommended.
