First User Group Gathering
Just finish the first gathering day of my .NET User Group yesterday, this is a great success although the number of attendee is far less than the registered/reserved records (Yeah, the number is better than my prediction in fact , we've a registration form and 51 members click the Register button, but 35 members finally attend the gathering only.)
I met many members yesterday and all of them feel excited about this kind of gathering and looking forward to the next gathering. :-) -

I visited a bookstore last month and write an entry about what I see in the past. Apart from the book that I mentioned in my last entry, I also saw a new magazine in that bookstore actually and its name is “.NET Asia Magazine”

FAQ: Display (Expand/Collapse) Hierarchical in ASP.NET DataGrid
I always see the question of “How to display hierarchical data in a DataGrid” in different Forums, Newsgroup, List Servers...etc etc. Therefore, a lot of articles were written in this topic, some of them use WITH ROLLUP keyword in TSQL, some of them use Nested DataGrid, some of them like injecting data into a Table/DataGrid control during ItemDataBound... etc etc, there're really tens of different approach to do the same result. Today, a new columnist join ASPAlliance, his name is Denis Bauer and his first article is exactly talking in this subject.
He wrote a Custom Control named “HierarGrid“ and just published an article about how to use it. This control is a DataGrid-like control and capable of displaying parent-child relationship / data. Moreover, it will generate a Expand/Collapse (Javascript) and toggle the visibibility of the child data per parent item: -

I received > 10 emails from my User Group email account today, all of them containing an attachment - message.zip, and all of them are send from the same admin account of my .NET User Group!

Domain Name Registration
I browse to a Domain Name registration web site this morning, and I want to search any available or interesting domain name for me. Yes, I know, www.Colt.com is registered by “Colt's Manufacturing Company Inc.” in the United States, and I don't think I can register it within short period of time. The similar 2nd level domain names like Colt.net, Colt.org, Colt.ws, Colt.Whatever are all unavailable.
So, I turn to a local domain name registration office, which is mainly for “.hk” third level domain name registration (i.e. the area code). I'm pretty sure the www.Colt.com.hk is available, as I check it a few months ago. However, it give me a surprise this morning that this domain name was registered by ... Mitsubishi Motors:
