There’s been a bit of slowdown in composing some new articles for the site.. despite the seriously large number of things to write about. This year has seen SQL Server 2012 go RTM, and the early pre-release candidates for both Windows 8 and Windows 8 Server. On the agenda are […]
Hi All, 31st March 2012 AUSTRALIAN NATIONWIDE MOBILE PHOTOGRAPHY PHOTO WALK & SYDNEY PHOTO WALK There’s a Google Australia photo walk 2012 this weekend, Saturday March 31st 2012 in most major cities. It’s a great opportunity to gather with fellow camera/photography enthusiasts and explore your city. There’s a good chance […]
Hi Everyone, Well, I’ve been waiting three weeks for a DSL connection and it isn’t happening anytime soon. In the interim, I’ve finally had enough of waiting and went and picked up a Telstra 4G modem, and I’m back online. Sorry to those folks who added comment which were awaiting […]
Despite that IPv6 day was held in a dual-stack configuration (as only parts of the Internet went IPv6 enabled), the metrics obtained provide an insight into what we might expect when the day comes to transition fully. Information published by the RIPE Network Coordination Centre (RIPE NCC) show that in […]
In my inbox today I found an e-mail from LinkedIn. The “LinkedIn Headlines” were especially saddening, but also WTF cringe worthy. Sometimes I just wish someone would proof read these emails before the send button is invoked:
This is something I just don’t understand. We all know about e-mail spam, it has been around for almost as long as the Internet itself, however comment spam is (by comparison) relatively new and a little mindboggling. Nearly every serious blogger I know moderates comments and uses manual and/or automatic […]
Hi All, The past two days I’ve been going through over 500 posts fixing up the categorization, mainly of the technical posts. It’s pretty much done now, I’ve eliminated some of the obsolete categories (which were mostly a hold over from the Live Spaces days) and added many to multiple […]
Hello everyone, Well, I’m back from holidays and about to get my teeth stuck into some more interesting technology. For the next week, I’ve decided to focus on a concept involving the serving of static (cachable) content – typically straight HTML – combined with AJAX and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) […]
<Professor Farnsworth>Good news everyone</Professor Farnsworth> We’ve successfully migrated away from Live Spaces (well, almost) and are now nice and happy in the new home at Sanders Technology. There are still a bunch of links in the various articles which refer to the file storage at Live Spaces, and a few […]
Well this is my first post to the new site from Live Writer. Hopefully, if all goes well, you will be reading this without any hassles. I’ve got to say that configuring IIS 6, PHP 5.2 and WordPress 3.0 has been a very time consuming and sometimes baffling process for […]
Hi There! As I mentioned in my “regular” blog – on live spaces – I’m going to be moving all that content over to this site. Please be patient, it’s going to be a lengthy migration I fear. Obviously this is a WordPress site, so I’m hoping to use all […]
Apologies, at the moment I am “on the road” – a nomad if you will – and as such, it has been rough finding time to put together some new technical articles for your enjoyment. Last week Microsoft released the “Release Candidate” version of Visual Studio 2010 and Team Foundation […]
Hi Everyone, I’m thinking of putting the slides and demo code from my co-presentation at the recent SQL Code Camp Oz in Wagga Wagga up on the blog here. Add a comment or email me if you’d like to see the slide deck or demo code linked from this blog! […]
Hi Everyone, It just occurred to me that you can follow the happenings of days 1 & 2 via hashtags. There are a lot of great posts across all the sessions, it’s a great way to enjoy Code Camp if you weren’t able to actually attend in person.
