In my desire to find other VSIP partners or users, I was drawn to AppsChannel, Inc, which is a VSIP Partner using VSIP to develop tools that improve developer productivity. I was initially drawn because of the Press Release today for Visual Workbench for Visual Studio .NET. According to the release, "Created by using Microsoft .NET technology and targeted from inception to the developer using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, Visual Workbench uses a flow-chart metaphor to conceptualize and render a programming solution in one step. The resultant logic flow map is stored as XML and can be repeatedly used to generate in-context source code directly to the code editor window."  Interesting. They also have some other cool tools like DevBrowser, and CodeDrop.  Update: Hmm, one thing, they seem to have forgotten is to use VSIP to get on the VS.NET splash screen and in the About Box. 1:40:12 PM
