  • Learning ins and outs of log4net. Using it in a one-off .NET console application.
  • Best log4net quick-start tutorial, I have found, thus far.
  • Using desktop version Balsamiq Mockups for web tool layout. Loving it.
  • Learning how to create button that follows u as u scroll browser, using jQuery plugin inside of ASP.net page: http://is.gd/4Loht
  • I am selling a Nikon D40 digital SLR camera with 18-55mm lens. Less than 2 months old: http://is.gd/4MbmX
  • Fixng ASP.NET problem: The Controls collection cannot be modified because the control contains code blocks. http://is.gd/4MdNn
  • Looking forward to Lord of the Rings Online: Siege of Mirkwood expansion. Check out the latest trailer.
  • Learning Scrum from Agile & Iterative Development: A Manager's Guide
  • I really like that the Scrum Master's roles is to remove blocks, provide resources, act as a firewall, and otherwise stay out of the way.
  • Similar to Scrum, my product/sprint backlogs are referred to as "wish-lists", organized by the Product Owner.#programming
  • Unlike Scrum, my iterations average about 6 weeks and estimates are broad and team size is 1. #programming
  • Sounds like Scrum suggests customer demos and feedback at end of 30-day sprint. I prefer earlier and often. Learn what's not working early.
  • Learning about WordCamp: community-organized WordPress events. I did not realized how popular WordPress is.
  • Would like to add feature to my search tool: Enter 'Robert' automatically search for 'Rob' and 'Bob'.
  • Sounds like first name variation search may not be such a great idea. Probably better to leave in hands of user.
