Application logging – yes it is important
I’ve spent most of my professional career working on Enterprise Applications (mostly web based). Sometimes you release your code and everything goes smoothly (this is where praise is warranted by rarely given). However, there are times when code has been...
Updated BicNet Projects
I have updated my projects site. This section of my bicnet website is a place where I can throw working examples of blog posts, and other things I like to show. Sometimes at home I'll find something cool, and I'll throw it up there for my manager to see...

Quickies vs. Performance - Part 1

Master Pages, buttons, Login Control, and the default button
