I was just on the MSDN Speakers page to grab a pic of Burlington based Susan Wisowaty who is one of the MSDN DCC’s and noticed something really fun that they have done to the site.
All of the DCCs have straight photos – serious and wearing their Microsoft shirts. But when you hover the mouse over the pictures, you see a real picture of that person. Bernard Wong competing with the sun in an ultra-bright t-shirt (you can always pick him out in a crowd!) ; Susan in her moto-cross gear :-), Russ Fustino in his tool-man garb, Rory Blyth being, well, Rory; and more. It’s really fun since I know a bunch of these folks. Go check it out!
Susan will be presenting on Avalon (WPF) at our July 17th Vermont.NET meeting. Before she worked for Microsoft, she showed up at meetings in her leathers more than once!
Two new contests were announced.
Made in Express $10,000 for the most clever app written in VS2005 Express and/or SQL Server 2005 Express.
Mash it Up with Atlas Smartphones and XBOX 360’s are the giveaways for getting up to your eyeballs with Atlas and doing something cool. The newest Atlas CTP was just released, too! more on atlas.asp.net.

It took embedding XML into SQLServer to get Stephen to go public on his love for it. Perhaps all of those digs at Clemens Vasters’ choice to store dasBlog data in XML were just a ruse. But now Stephen is not only at one with XML, he is spreading the joy. (Hey maybe I should be a lobbyist, that’s pretty good, huh?)
Stephen is coming to Vermont.NET on Monday night, all thanks to INETA to present on XML in VS2005 & SQL Server 2005.
He was also planning to come up for another snowshoing hike (we did Mt. Mansfield last time he was here) but alas, we are expecting rain rain and more rain.
Meeting Date: Monday March 13th
Time: 6:00 – 8:30 pm
Location: Vermont Technical College, Williston Campus

Ever wonder why your application suddenly can’t find a file that is definitely in the right place? There’s a good chance that you are relying on the default path and that you opened up a FileDialog window. [read more …]

“Error Creating Window Handle” is not a .NET error, but is coming from Win32, which, in itself, is a big clue when trying to solve this problem, which I had to do today. [Read more …]
