Got a few tips for architecture related links from Arvindra Sehmi, a very smart guy and Senior Architect at MSFT EMEA HQ in the UK that I just added to my linkscollection here at dotnetweblogs. Especially I liked this huge doc at MSDN:

I think prevalence is cool. Why? Because it's such an "unthinkable" concept. It's almost tabu. I like the lightly smug attitude of the guys at Prevayler.org because they have actually created something based on this idea and are provocative enough for the RDBMS crowd to actually come up with good arguments.

This book, C# Design Patterns Applied, was recently released on Wrox, so it seems as they are still going on despite of financial troubles.

I saw this recent MSDN TV episode about ASP.NET client side script handling. As a sworn hater of client side scripts I played the clip in horror, but found that as long as I can assign these scrips to my pages serverside (and dynamically) they are actually pretty cool.

I've been working with implementing a MVC pattern for a WinForms app that got unmanagable lately. I'm currently trying out the solution and it seems to have something going for it.

The whole world is watching at the moment. Whilst CNN is not very updated Salam Pax is actually blogging from Bagdad!

I just attended a talk with Alistair Cockburn on software development processes and the human factor.
