Robert McLaws: FunWithCoding.NET

Just wanted to formally announce that as of right now the GotDotNet Workspaces v1 are live and kicking. Congrats to Andy Oakley for all his and his team's hard work. Those guys rule. I'll be making HEAVY use of this system, and it's VS.NET integration.

Some anonymous coward called Scoble a "self-important pretentions asshole". Hmm. Maybe he hasn't read Dave Winer. The guy even says in his comments that he doesn't take criticism very well. Hmmm, I know a few people like that....

Ok so we can't write about:

Ugh. I'm in the middle of a move, and my internet connection is off. I feel naked. I'm going thru withdrawl.... can't get my daily dose of Scoble....

From Andy Oakley (one really cool guy) GDN Workspaces Preview site is live! I CANNOT wait for VS.NET IDE Integration. I tried it today but it didn't work. I think they have it tied to www.gotdotnet.com, which obviously won't work until the site is live. OMG I'm so excited... GREAT JOB GUYS!

Matt Reynolds says the language debate is over. Really?!!? I didn't know we started that nonsense back up again.

I've been blogging a lot about "meaning of life" type stuff as it relates to coding (which IMO is sometimes more interesting than seeing someone's code). In the likeness of one of my heroes, Joe Scarborough, here's Rob's Real Deal:

King Solomon said "Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is not satisfied with his income." If you are coding a particular language just because you get paid more, maybe VBers aren't the ones making the"*BIG MISTAKE*". Why do I code? Because I genuinely love to solve problems, and it excites me to write code that works in new an imaginative ways. Success lies not in wealth, power, possessions, or achievement. It is a journey not a destination. You're focus should be using whatever language makes you the most productive, helps you grow in your potential as a programmer and as a person, and helps you benefit others. When those three things come, everything else will follow.

OK Guys, I'm working on the final draft of the docs for GenX.NET 3.0, and I'm curious. I've been adding XML comments to my sealed and private classes and functions, in an effort to keep my code spit-polished and consistent. Now, NDOC lets you specify whether or not private entities are included in the comment files. My question then is twofold:
A) Do you think that having MSDN style docs for your public object model and your complete object model is a good idea

AND

B) Would you find a separate set of complete object model docs helpful if you purchased the source code for a component?

Please give me your thoughts.

Today has been a fabulous day. Too fabulous for words. I can't wait to blog about it on my peronal site today, after i get it set up.
