I mentioned previously that I was working on a multi-file upload control for Silverlight. Yes, it has been done, but it's a good practical thing to get your head around. I feel like I've managed to get to a good place with it in terms of the "hard" parts...
I checked to see how CoasterBuzz's search index was going today, and was pretty shocked to see that it now as about 15 million rows. Can't say that I've personally written anything that generated that much data on its own before. Once upon a time, POP...
After it has been running for nearly a year, and with parts of it rewritten in that time span, I've decided to release POP Forums v8 into the wild and see what happens. So what's the delay, and what's my problem? Well, there are three issues that have...
This is a post I've meant to write for a very long time. Since 1998, my part-time job of sorts has been to maintain a number of community sites. One of those, started ten years ago, was Guide to The Point . "The Point" in this case is Cedar Point, an...

I promise that one of these days soon I'm going to talk a little about where POP Forums v8 is headed, and what you'll be able to do with it. I don't imagine there's a huge demand for the app, but regardless, it will be available. In any case, I spent...
After mostly sitting on a mostly functional, if not feature complete, build of POP Forums v8 for almost a year, I deployed it as a part of the second coming of PointBuzz , the most popular unofficial fan site for Cedar Point amusement park. It was kind...
Every once in awhile I find some strange differences between IIS and the ASP.NET dev server that comes in Visual Studio. The previous item was that IIS seems to have at least two instance of HttpModules, while the dev server only has one. The new one...
