Thinking In .NET
A place to learn about C# and the .NET platform, by Larry O'Brien. But mostly the obligatory braindump cross-linking that characterizes the blogsphere.

Baby.msi Installation complete, reboot?
I'm proud to announce that at 1:07am this morning Christina and my first major release went gold. Claire Elizabeth Whittington was born at 8 pounds even. Mom and baby are both doing fine and are asleep. Dad is sooo sleepy. Guess I've got plenty more of that to look forward to :) What, you thought you were going to get away without having to look at pictures?
Congratulations Jason!

Blogging with ink from a Tablet PC
If you have IE, check it out. Unfortunately, Netscape can't render it. This is what it says:
Blogging from Tablet
Well, it's easy enough to write a client app that uses the Blogger API to add ink-based notes to your blog, but the problem is that the ink is saved in a MIME-TYPE that Netscape cannot under[stand]. So...
1) Either you have to render all your ink as text -- which SUCKS [and pretty much undermines the whole point of ink blogging]
2) Or... save your entry as a TIFF, which equally sucks because the ink becomes non-editable.
3) Or... you have to have a blog that is not readable by some [which is probably unacceptable]

Anyone know how to hook into an IRDA connection? Interesting. An Irda connection is just a specialized kind of socket; .NET provides good low-level access to sockes, so it should be possible to write a managed app that hooks into Irda connections. Apparently, there is a nice high-level interface called OBEX that seems to be just what I'm interested in... ObApp: every tablet (or, if you must, laptop) in a meeting room "discovers" each other and gets the latest agenda / handouts, etc.
