Brad Wilson and a few others have commented on the revamped Google Reader. I decided to check it out myself. I've been a long time user of the original NewsGator Inbox (aka NewsGator for Outlook), complemented for the past year or so with NewsGator Online. I can't complain about it,...

One of my favourite things in the world is reading books, not only technical in nature, btw. So I just wanted to stop my usual technical babble to mention some of the things I've been reading recently. I'm usually a big Sci-Fi and Fantasy junkie, but I also enjoy a...

I've said in the past that a large part of the apparent complexity of WSDL had nothing to do with WSDL at all; it was rather caused by the inline inclusion of XSDs in the <wsdl:types/> section. I'm a big fan of creating your schemas separately and then importing them into...

You can create extension elements in your WCF configuration files in order to support introducing custom behaviors (such as IEndpointBehavior-implementations) into the processing pipeline in a declarative manner. However, the documentation online at this moment isn't too clear on the issue (well, it's outdated, so of course it's not clear!)....

I'm happy to report it appears I've been awarded this year once again as a Microsoft MVP. Yeah!
