I installed this new addin for Visual Studio and the concept is interesting, sharing your snippets and get access from your code to a huge (not yet sadly !) list of snippets.

Make Multiple Visual Studio .NET Projects Participate in the Same Web Application
If you are building web applications with .NEt, everything is fine until your app start to be big. The frustration come because everything in .Net web app finsih as a single dll, which look like a bloated file very quickly after you add some pages or features.
One solution is to work with multiple projects and then deploy to your production server all the files you need. Of course this can cause some issue, one for me would be the lack of common resources between the main application and the child subwebs. -
Google launch a new service Google personal page
I believe Google idea is to make Google as your default browser page. I like the idea to have my gmail account and the BBC news on one page.
For the weather, well I am not really to see if it's raining in LA but more about sunset on Dublin (I know sounds weird but happens twice a year between two showers). -
NEW !! INDA Library
To go to the Library use this link www.developers.ie/members/books.aspx for the list. You need to login first before access.
Simply by clicking on one of the books on the shelf, it will be reserved for you. You can then collect the book at the next INDA meeting in Dublin after that. The book will be yours for a maximum period of 30 days (or the next meeting, whichever comes first).
If the book you choose has been reserved by someone else, you still have the possibility to put your name on a waiting list.
When you collect the book a deposit of 50 euros per book is requested. This will be fully refunded to you when the book is returned in good condition. I will also be please if you can get back your opinion on the books, so that INDA can have its own review page.
I am sure you will enjoy this new service and of course any feedback is appreciated. -

Xbox 360 fully compatible Media Center 2005!
Wow this is really the news I was expecting from Microsoft. So for many will make a huge difference between the PS3 as a game console and the Xbox as a full entertainment experience. This is what I like features, not necessarily the teraflops
