  I introduced CodePaste.NET more than 2 years ago. In case you haven't checked it out it's a code-sharing site where you can post some code, assign a title and syntax scheme to it and then share it with others via a short URL.

• SnagIt Live Writer Plug-in updated

  - by Rick Strahl

  I've updated my free SnagIt Live Writer plug-in again as there have been a few issues with the new release of SnagIt 11.

  Ok, here’s a fairly basic one – how to force a textbox to accept only numeric input.
