I uploaded a bunch of new pictures from this month... Hiking on the AT & Wiley Shelter (I only got 4 days in, but still very fun. I can't wait to go again. I'll post separately on this.) http://longlostcousins.com/photos/todd/category1030...

Here's a video of Wiley Shelter in NY where I stayed one of the nights on my recent hike. I was out for about 4 days. This is really my favorite shelter although I've only been to a few of the hundreds that are on the trail. The video shows the...

I'm typing this post on a MacBook; my new MacBook to be exact. Why such silliness you ask? Well, I needed a new computer, and since I expect to be doing a whole bunch of Apex programming in Eclipse in the near future, I figured I would take the plunge...

Using SPunit ( cookbook / Sourceforge ) to test your SQL stored procs? Want some NUnit style xml output? I haven't actually tested this on my CCNet installation yet, but it works with the dashboard's standard xsl file. Use this instead...

Over the last month or so, I've gotten to work on some cool new stuff and see some new technologies - I recently updated my blog theme, went to DevConnections, and have focused on testing and CI at work. Here's some new stuff I discovered (or...

I'm working on updating my Community Server blog theme so it won't look so much like the out of the box themes. A couple of good resources for people who are only marginally creative like me: :) www.colorsontheweb.com has a whole bunch of tools...

UPDATED: 11/17/2007 - added some links to speaker & session info and fixed a couple of typos Since I'm going to have to review this at work, I thought I'd get some thoughts together about the sessions I attended at DevConnections last week...

I spent last week in Las Vegas at the DevConnections conference. It was my first BIG conference, although I've been to many are Code Camps and MSDN Events sessions. This was a whole 'nother ball game. ( A few more pix ) There must have been 5...

DevConnections here I come! Got the conference registration, flight, and hotel all booked up today! I'll be attending mixture of ASP.Net and Sharepoint sessions, but I'll be sure to catch at least one OpenForce session - Jim Bonnie and Rob Connery...

I wrote a quick overview of caching (and state) the other day and saw a great VaryByCustom tip on Steven Smith's blog today . VaryByCustom allows you to use a global.asax method ( GetVaryByCustomString ) to return a string that will act as your VaryBy...

I've been looking into unit testing in SQL as a quick way to check out the effects of database changes. I've been spending a fair amount of time working on SQL-only type changes - things that unit or functional tests won't catch either because...

This is some stuff I've been meaning to post to the wiki at work because I've been asked a lot of questions about it, but just haven't gotten around to yet. It's a little bit intro, but I couldn't find a good snapshot anywhere else...

I blogged in the past about my iPhone. It's a decent phone, but not really worth all the hype IMHO. As the "platform" matures, some cool sites are popping up.Fumbleview lets you get up to the minute football game progress on your iPhone...

Two months ago, I posted about being a better developer in 6 months just like everyone else . Since I want to keep this going, I’m grading myself periodically to see where I stand… 1. Blog more. Not Changed: Exactly the same as last month… “OK, I really...
