My Code Kata–A Solution Kata
Sunday, November 13, 2011 1:53 PM
There are many developers and coders out there who like to do code Kata’s to keep their coding ability up to scratch and to practice their skills. I think it is a good idea. While I like the concept, I find them dead boring and of minimal purpose. Yes, they serve to hone your skills but that’s about it. They are often quite abstract, in that they usually focus...

Sydney Architecture User Group - It has come to an end
Tuesday, March 22, 2011 2:57 PM
Unfortunately, the Sydney Architecture User Group that Omar Besiso and myself run in Sydney, is closing its doors.

Making WCF Output a single WSDL file for interop purposes.
Tuesday, March 16, 2010 10:42 PM

Wednesday, April 29, 2009 11:48 PM
I have been doing a lot of performance testing lately, and one of the worst things that can happen during a performance run, is when you don’t get any results. Performance testing is expensive, from a time and resources perspective, so getting results from a run is paramount. In my scenario, I have everything automated to kick off a performance run, at 7.00pm... Read More...
