Update: With striking proof that I'm dense and a Developer of Little Brain, Andrew points out that the results are sorted by date added. :- P On at least one torrent search site, our book is the #2 item when you search for WPF. Not searching for "WPF book", just "WPF". Rock on...

Today started off in a bad, bad way. Because of some issues I had earlier in the week with my source control repository (SCR) I was doing a ton of work offline. Today I was able to regain access to my SCR I decided to do a full get. I was fully expecting SourceOffSite (crappy overlay tool on top of VSS...

Chris Sutton recently posted his chat with Sarah , Paypal's new automated help assistant.  Curious about the service I checked it out and actually found Sarah quit attractive (that's her on the right).  Even though we just had met I thought I would take that oh-so-frightful first step...

So today I got an IM from Chris Sutton telling me that my RSS feed for DimeCasts.Net was not working.  So being the paranoid guy I am, I immediately started to run in circles like Chicken Little yelling "The Sky is falling, the Sky is falling".  It was not till I became horse and...

Bil Simser has a funny post that I thought I would respond to. My 2 people.  JDN (John) of the Alt.net list and Scott Bellware.  This would be great.  I am sure for the first 24+ hours it would be a cynical bitchfest and blood would be all over the place.  Then, as calmer heads prevailed...

I did not even notice that my post from yesterday was my 250th here at Devlicio.us.  Who would have thunk that I would that much useless stuff to share with the world. It has been a blast, and here is to another 250 more posts.  That's right, I still have more useless knowledge to share...
