  • LINQ to SQL: Me too on the "Huh?"

    OK, so admittedly I've questioned the usefulness LINQ to SQL , but I'd never stand up and say that it's gotta go. What was really said at PDC? Sure, the entity framework sounds super (I say "sounds" because the write ups for it on MSDN are terrible, and the very few books on it haven't been released...

  • Another day of OpenForce, I hope it doesn’t end!

    Wow, I must say anyone not attending OpenForce here in The Netherlands this week is missing out (sorry Alex!). It has been a great conference, lots of great people to meet and ideas to discuss. I just finished my last session and came upstairs to change before I head back down to do more socializing...

  • Microsoft documentation fail

    Before it sounds like all I do is complain, let me first say that the advances in C# 3.0, along with LINQ and ASP.NET AJAX, have made programming more fun than ever. I've spent a lot of time lately using all of this stuff on my own projects, and I'm having a great time. I'm going to make some lucky employer...

  • My First Microsoft Interview

    I'm happy in my present situation, but working at Microsoft has always been in the back of my mind. So, when a recruiter for the Business Solutions division tracked me down, I was certainly going to find out more. The project sounded interesting enough, so when he asked if he could take it to the next...

  • Bill Gates era coming to a close

    Bill Gates is just about done at Microsoft. I feel very fortunate just have been in the same room when he did the keynote at Mix06. I don't think the guy is evil in any way. I think he's f'ing brilliant, and he deserves every bit of his success. He's not always right, but he's a smart guy. I really dig...

  • Microsoft interview fail

    Well, I don't have to worry about moving to Seattle, because Microsoft is not making an offer. So now that it's all in the past, I feel like I can talk a little more openly about the experience. I won't say which group it was that I was approached by, but I will say that it was not one that I expected...
