List of blogs - year 2010
This is the last day of year 2010 and I would like to add links to all blogs I have posted in this year.
First, I would like to mention that I started blogging in ASP.NET Community in May / June 2010 and have really enjoyed writing for my favorite technologies, such as: ASP.NET, jQuery/JavaScript, C#, LINQ, Web Services etc. I also had great feedback either through comments on my blogs or in Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn where I met many new experts just as a result of my blog posts. Thanks to the interesting topics I have in my blog, I became DZone MVB.
Here is the list of blogs I made in 2010 in my ASP.NET Community Weblog:
(newest to oldest) -

NDepend – Code Query Language (CQL)

NDepend tool – Why every developer working with Visual Studio.NET must try it!
In the past two months, I have had a chance to test the capabilities and features of the amazing NDepend tool designed to help you make your .NET code better, more beautiful and achieve high code quality. In other words, this tool will definitely help you harmonize your code. I mean, you’ve probably heard about Chaos Theory. Experienced developers and architects are already advocates of the programming chaos that happens when working with complex project architecture, the matrix of relationships between objects which simply even if you are the one who have written all that code, you know how hard is to visualize everything what does the code do. When the application get more and more complex, you will start missing a lot of details in your code… NDepend will help you visualize all the details on a clever way that will help you make smart moves to make your code better.

ViewBag dynamic in ASP.NET MVC 3
Earlier today Scott Guthrie announced the ASP.NET MVC 3 - Release Candidate 2. I installed the new version right after the announcement since I was eager to see the new features. Among other cool features included in this release candidate, there is a new ViewBag dynamic which can be used to pass data from Controllers to Views same as you use ViewData[] dictionary. What is great and nice about ViewBag (despite the name) is that its a dynamic type which means you can dynamically get/set values and add any number of additional fields without need of strongly-typed classes.

Case-insensitive XPath query search on XML Document in ASP.NET
Sometimes we need to read XML files that are manually written by users and find some elements in the XML tree. Using .NET library, we can easily navigate throughout the whole XML file since the library has excellent support for working with XML files. One of the challenges you may come across is when you want to search for specific node in the XML file, but you are not sure about the letter case (lower, upper or even mixed) of the XML elements.

jQuery UI Accordion in ASP.NET – Client side implementation (Part 1)
Accordion is a well-known web control that allows you to have multiple web panes and display them one at a time. It’s like having several ASP.NET panels in one website and are dependant on each other so that only one panel is shown at a time while other are collapsed. If you are familiar with the jQuery UI, you probably already know about jQuery UI Accordion which exactly gives you the same ability what I’ve described previously.

Using CodeRun browser-based IDE to create ASP.NET Web Applications
Today I'm in another town where I didn't get my laptop with me. Anyway, I've found a computer but I have nothing installed on it, in order to run some code snippets. However, I already knew about CodeRun, the web-browser IDE for web applications development that lets you build, run and debug your asp.net applications. Moreover, CodeRun lets you upload or download code files, which makes it easy if you build web application containing many other files, to download the complete application packed in zip.
