Tyler posted a link to a blog post about someone preferring a text editor over an integrated development environment (IDE) . Naturally, my first thought is, wow, who thinks like this? My first real exposure to development work was with the old ASP, which...
The best $199 you'll ever spend if you use Visual Studio... http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/
I know this is lame, but whatever. In my day job we haven't jumped beyond .NET v2.0, which I think is reasonable. In my own part-time self-employment projects, I haven't really developed anything new either, at least not on the server side of things....

What a difference a couple of years makes. When Visual Studio 2005 was in the works and I was writing my book, I spent a lot of time following the development of the product in the year prior to its release. This time around, I really didn't. On one hand...
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...
