I was talking to a friend today, who's foremost a php developer, about his thoughts on Umbraco and he said "Well they're apparently working feverishly on the new version of Umbraco, which will be MVC... which i still don't know what that means, but I know you like it."
I ended up giving him a ground up explanation of ASP.NET MVC, so I'm posting…
I'm a beginner to Ruby and Rails, and I have made a couple applications like a Microposts clone and a Todo-List for starters, but I'm starting work on another project.
I've got 2 models - user and tracker, you log in via the username which is authenticated and you can log down data which is stored in the tracker table.

Recently, a discussion broke out (go figure) on a SharePoint list that I frequent. It had grown in size to the point where the more advanced members were sometimes turned off by the volume of questions that appeared TOO simple. This happens all the time, as something becomes larger and specialization is necessary.Anyhoo, my…

I have recently been delving into server-side code web development with python, and I have hit a brick wall; you see, I know little about server side code and HTTP (other than the v. basics with php shudder), and all of the docs for wsgi that I have found seem to be for people already well established in the field.

Following the recent release by Microsoft of TypeScript I was wondering if this is something that should be considered for a experienced WinForm and XAML developer looking to get into more web development.
From reviewing a number of sites and videos online it appears that the type system for TypeScript makes more sense to me as a…

Maybe my next post will just be about why I am so excited and impressed with the out of the box templates. But, for this first blog with my new focus, I thought I would just walk through the process I went through to create a task progress report (to enhance…

We have a project that everyone says we will be doing in a agile way but I doubt we have clearly understood what agile is.
In previous projects we had planning meetings, then defined the product back log and allocated the work to developers in 2 to 3 week…
I come from an effective team of Agile Java developers. We've had a lot of success in hiring more people like ourselves - people passionate about technology with experience primarily in the Agile Java/J2EE space.

I have been experimenting with some concepts from XP, like the following:
Pair Programming
Test First Programming
Incremental Deliveries

But I am still looking for some insight from the genius minds using SO. I installed Microsoft Project 2010, and was assuming that it would have some template/plugin that…
