Handling Errors in ASP.NET
Very nice hack from Fritz Onion posted by Craig.
I was searching for something like that since a long time.
The other day, I was working through some code, adding error handling. We use the Enterprise Instrumentation Framework to do this (oddly only available via MSDN Subscriber download at the Universal level). When I got into the ASP.NET web pages I’d written, I had a bit of a problem. I didn’t really want to add try/catch blocks around every single method in the page’s base class – that would be a little redundant, and would mean that I’d have to change code in a bunch of places if I decided to change the style of errors I was reporting. -

dbXML - Native XML Database
dbXML is a Native XML Database. It is capable of storing and indexing collections of XML documents in both native and mapped forms for highly efficient querying, transformation, and retrieval. In addition to these capabilities, the server may also be extended to provide business logic in the form of scripts, classes and triggers.
The version 2.0 is in Beta phase but you can apply to be a Beta tester on their site -

Searching in MSDN
I would like to know your actual experience with MSDN.
Mine is a bad one, the site is worst and worst everyday.
Searching something or looking for new stuff is not really a pleasant time.
The navigation system is also so slow, and inconsistent where you have a dropdown submenu on the top level, and deeper a tree view !
Sorry for the rant, but MSDN suppose to be an helpful resources center, and there is like searching a needle in a haystack :-(
This site need really a huge clean up !
So if somebody from Microsoft read this please do something. Unlike many colleagues, I don't have the luxury to have a fast backbone Internet access, and like everybody not a huge amount of time to understand how to write a search sentence compatible with the MSDN rules. -
Caching dropdown lists
I like to play with Cache clas, it's a really powerful beast, but it has some limits, which I hope will be improve in .Net 2.0.

Wow! My CMS project dScribe take a great shape today when I was able to see the front-end getting the content from my database ;-)
For the moment I just have to declare this in the different sections of the test site Scoilnet, and voila! -
The Unofficial blogs.gotdotnet.com main feed
Well rather then complain about the lack of a main feed for http://blogs.gotdotnet.com/ I decided to code up a little app to create a feed. The current feed only includes the blogs running BlogX so guys like Don Box are currently not included. I'll write more about how I created the main feed as well as release the source for the feed creator in a later post. For the time being point your aggregators over to http://www.emxtechnologies.com/gotdotnet-blogs/mainfeed.xml and let me know what you think!
