Attribute-driven ASP.NET Session Management: The ultimate in style and beauty.
A couple of people seemed to like my attribute driven session management bits, so here's the completed solution for all of your session management desires when writing ASP.NET Web Forms. Cross-roundtrip, cross-page, cross-session, cross-site-visit, cross-page-visit. The XML code comments are the docs, take it, use it, improve it, keep me out of trouble, give credit and otherwise: write less code.

Mastering Visual Studio .NET sample chapters. "Mastering Visual Studio .NET, by Jon Flanders and Chris Sells
"Most developers can perform the basics inside Visual Studio .NET, like creating a project, typing some code, compiling and debugging. Although Mastering Visual Studio .NET covers these topics, it does so very quickly. This book enables intermediate and advanced programmers the kind of depth that's really needed, such as advanced window functionality, macros, advanced debugging, and add-ins, etc. With this book, developers will learn the VS.NET development environment from top to bottom."

Microsoft Delivers Updated SOAP Toolkit. "Microsoft Wednesday released a new version of its Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) toolkit, an add-on that helps developers build Web services using its Visual Studio development tool. Microsoft's SOAP toolkit 3.0 includes support for DIME (Direct Internet Message Encapsulation) and WS-Attachments, both of which define how to package binary data up with SOAP messages."

TV makers face digital conversion: "Broadcasters must return their analog spectrum to the government by 2006, but only if 85% of households can get digital signals. The tuner mandate would help meet that deadline, letting the government then auction the old broadcast channels to wireless carriers for billions of dollars."

Interesting statistics. Whether you agree or disagree, it's worth noting that statistics -- along with the way they are interpreted and presented -- have an interesting effect on today's society.

Visual C++ 7 speed vs Visual C# speed. "I did a rough experiment the other day with strange results. I created two console apps one is C# and the other if Visual C++ 7. The apps do calculations for Generation of the Mandelbrot Set and time how long it takes. The strange thing is that the Visual C# App is much faster than the C++ App. (1.5 secs per set for the C# App and 1.9 secs per set for the C++ App). This seems totally bizarre to me as I would have thought it would be the opposite. It puts me in the strange situation of thinking about rewritting my C++ fractal generator in C# to get more speed !!" [Windows Technology Off Topic Mailing List]

No job is worth working yourself half to death over. I set a strict policy of 40 hours a week after putting in some really long and hard hours and not getting anything in return.

Ditto. My last job was a demanding one. An Internet startup company. We all had laptops so we could work at home too. I also traveled a lot. I think everything you do is a learning experience and I definitely came away from that job with a new outlook. I enjoyed what I did, but I don't want that lifestyle again. Spending time with family and friends is much more important to me now.
