Mimeo lands $6.5 million financing.
Mimeo Lands $6.5 Million Financing
Here's a link to some quick coverage. Guess this means investors feel we've got ourselves a good product here. I know I certainly do! ;) Congratulations to my fellow employees who have worked hard and sacrificed during these tough times.
We're currently putting the finishing touches on our next-generation offering. I can't actually discuss the details yet, but suffice to say that we listened to what our users wanted, picked a few of the most requested features and that's what we're delivering (soon).

According to this article, "Microsoft deprecated DISCO search for ASP.NET Web services in Visual Studio .NET's Add Web Reference dialog. RC-1's "Find Web Services on the Local Machine" link is missing. DISCO isn't gone; it's hibernating. Learn how to re-enable DISCO searches with a simple change to your machine.config file. Get ready for DISCO's replacement, WS-Inspection, with C# examples that generate .wsil files."

I'm not a SOAP guy, but this looks like an interesting article on Digging Into the SOAP Headers with the .NET Framework. Matt Powell looks at using SOAP headers in the .NET Framework, including what information should go in the header, how to read and write message headers, and how to extend the SOAP infrastructure by using SoapExtensions to handle header-block processing.

Where Do You Find the Time?.
Real software engineering has so little to do with actual technology, it's kinda sad. I'm lucky. I only have to do the technology part. My question is, how do people with full-time jobs find the time to learn the technology?
[sellsbrothers.com: Windows Developer News] Sounds like you have much more than a full time job Chris! I mean -- Genghis, WebServices DevCon, books, consulting -- and more?! You sound like a pretty busy guy to me. For someone like me, it can be difficult. I've got a full time job that (like many other coders) winds up usually being a 9 hour day (and then some). Plus I have a wife and two kids I enjoy spending time with. And I enjoy sleeping every now and then too. ...[Wrinkled Paper]
Great description, Patrick, of the struggles of us married types with kids trying to squeeze in time here and there! I'm real lucky that my full time job is 100% .NET and usually involves leading edge research since many of the things we do push the edge. But you nail it right. Commute, wife, kids, sleep...I was talking about this with Peter Drayton recently, finding enough time to do research for the next book and of course the answer is to not work and do pure research for a while but that won't jive with my wife and my creditors!
