New book on Refactoring with Visual Studio 2010 from Packt Publishing

Recently Packt Publishing sent me a copy of ‘Refactoring with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010’ by Peter Ritchie , I have to say I have rather impressed by it. My only major issue with it is that of the title, this book covers much more than the refactoring features of 2010. It provides a very clear example...

Great iPlayer Media Center Plugin

I am very impressed with the iPlayer Media Center Plugin I found on the Australian Media Center Community , I like most people found it installed fine but that it failed to add itself to the start menu. However this was easily fixed using Media Center Studio once I got my head around the Media Center...

Once more with feeling…watching yourself on video

I have been meaning to watch back the video taken of my recent presentation for a while. This weekend I have had the chance to sample the highlights! In the past I have always found it hard to watch myself on recordings, though after the initial cringe this time it was not too bad. I must be getting...

BCS EGM results

The BCS has had its EGM today and the results are out . Basically the vote is about 75% in support of the status quo, which I am not surprised by.

IDD Building a breakfast comment to a become process – now there is a leap

Gil at Typemock has been posting about some ideas we discussed over breakfast at the Typemock Partner conference a while ago, I have been a bit slow at commenting, so I though I better add to the conversation.

Post NDC2010 thoughts – a great event

What a great event the Norwegian Developers conference is. It is a nice size so there is a good selection of tracks, but no so big you feel lost, also the speakers and attendees were all mixing freely which I think always makes for a good atmosphere. This was all enhanced by the excellent organisation...

When travelling aboard what I hate most about Windows Mobile 6 is that I have no idea if the phone is going to trying to use a local WiFi or 3G.

Thoughts on the BCS EGM

Stepping along the path ploughed by Richard and Robert, I thought I’d try to order my thoughts on the BCS EGM through a blog post.

Thoughts on the BCS EGM

I got the paperwork for the British Computer Society EGM this week. This EGA raises some interesting issues, the best overview of the issue I have found seems to be on the Computer Weekly site . So has supporters of the EGM motion argument, led by former BCS trustee Len Keighley, any merit? Yes, it does...
