Support for ObjectDataProvider with ContructorParameters broken in EID I just filed a bug over on Microsoft Connect about a problem in Expression Interactive Designer with the design time support for an ObjectDataProvider where ConstructorParameters are used. I noticed it a couple weeks ago and never got around to filing, but I just got back into working on the project where I was having the […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Atlas gets its official product name Well, the news is out over on Scott Guthrie’s weblog: Atlas has received it’s offical name and true to Microsoft tradition it’s no where near as cool as the code-name. 😛 There are technically three major facets to the product formally known as Atlas and Scott does a good job breaking it down, but I’ll […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
ASP.NET 2.0 Feature Conversion Completed We officially rolled out a release of the “My” Mimeo.com web application this weekend. While we actually added some really great customer features, one of the biggest things in this release development wise was a full upgrade to use several features of ASP.NET 2.0 that were previously solved by a bunch of proprietary code that I wrote […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Solving the back button problem in Atlas Nikhil has posted a control which aims to fix a common problem with most AJAX frameworks where users tend to lose the all too familiar history navigation paradigm that they are used to relying on. What Nikhil has provided is an elegant solution based on the awesome UpdatePanel feature of Atlas. If you’re doing AJAX with […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Agile Architect Sam Gentile has an absolutely awesome post on the importance of the role of the Software Architect even in Agile based development. As Chief Software Architect here at Mimeo, this obviously touches close to home. We’ve adopted Agile, but I still make sure that we budget time for architecture tasks for each iteration. As Sam […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Providing custom context to your WCF service operations First off, I’d like to say that I absolutely love how extensible WCF is. So far there hasn’t been anything I can’t do. Unfortunately the documentation, examples and guidance around extensibility is still lacking a bit at this point. This is somewhat disturbing considering that RC1 just went out. Now, on to what I really want to […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail

Paul Thurott looks at Leopard and sums up Apple’s Vista envy quite nicely I kinda hinted at how lame the Vista bashing was in my first post about the WWDC. Well, Paul Thurott basically says everything I would have to say quite nicely here in his OSX Leopard preview. I can’t wait until certain other features are able to be talked about because it’ll be really fun to […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
WWDC Day 2: Apple playing catch-up in technology So, I can’t talk about anything that isn’t already on the web because, unlike a PDC, everything you learn at WWDC is considered private. What I can say is that while OSX is undeniably kicking XP’s ass and probably going to still come out on top of Vista in terms of user experiece, they sure […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
