WPF Commands are COOL!
WPF Commands are COOL!
March 27, 2007

I've been digging into the Command infrastructure in WPF lately and I really like the way it works.  Essentially it is a way to separate the idea that you have commands that a particular applciation can execute and the ways you start a command (e.g. menu, toolbar button, context menu, hotkey, pen gesture). WPF comes a standard set of commands that are commonly used (e.g. New, Close, Copy, Paste, Cut, etc.).  You can define your own commands fairly easily as well.

A Lesson for Software Development

I use a Dish Network satellite dish for my TV.  They pushed an update last week to all their subscribers.  This new feature is a great idea: if an HD channel is available for a channgel (e.g. ESPN, Local Channels), tune the HD channel instead of the non-HD version.  Normally that would be perfect...except...not all HD versions of channels have the same programming.

Add Using Automatically - Visual Studio 2005 Feature
March 7, 2007

My new favorite feature of Visual Studio is the ability to click on a typename and have it automatically add the using/imports statement for me.  It won't do it if you don't have the assembly already referenced, but otherwise this is a huge time saver for me...I don't know why I never noticed it before.

I've reworked my web site. It was looking a bit more like the uniform of a NASCAR driver than a web site, so I reworked the layout to make it cleaner. I admittedly stole many of my ideas from other web sites and templates I saw.
