Podcasts:
Scott gets the scoop on software architecture with developer and author Dan Appleman.
Scott chats with Larry Osterman, the man who makes Windows go "ding", about his two-plus decades working for Microsoft. They chat about sound, Vista, Security and generally geek out.
In this episode, Scott talks with Mel Sampat, a Program Manager at Microsoft who's written OutSync, an application that syncs faces between Outlook, Facebook, and indirectly Windows SmartPhones. They chat about what it takes to write your own FaceBook application using ASP.NET or WinForms.
Scott's all alone this week, talking about planning the house he and his wife built. They used Google Earth to visualize the lot, placing a lot and neighborhood plan in 3D space. Then, working with their agent, they modeled the architectural plans in Google SketchUp and placed the model in Google Earth.
Scott and Carl turn to Jonathan Zuck of the Association for Competitive Technology to demystify Software Licensing and the industry's many Open Source Software Licenses.
Scott chats with Matt Davis, architect at EarthClassMail.com, about their move from a LAMP stack (Linux/Apache/mysql/PHP) to .NET 3.5. What's working, what's not, and what kinds of issues are they running into as their architect their solution.
Scott chats with Stephen Toub a Microsoft Developer working on new ways to make concurrency programming easier with .NET.
Scott and Carl talk with Shawn Burke on the culmination of his many-year-old plan to get parts of the source of the .NET Framework released. With Visual Studio 2008, a simple process will allow developers to STEP INTO the .NET Framework Source from the IDE. This'll be a great debugging and learning tool.
Every copy of Windows Vista Home Premium and above has Media Center on it. Have you run your copy? Turns out that you can develop your own '10 foot apps' (that can be run with a remote from your couch) with Visual Studio Express or even Notepad. Scott talks to Charlie Owen to find out how.
Scott adds some much needed detail to last weeks show. Is developing on 64-bit in .NET tricky? What gotchas do you need? Who should move to 64-bit? Recorded from his hotel room the night before Scott goes to work at Microsoft.
Carl and Scott are both running 64-bit Vista while others wait. Was it the right decision?
Scott's been poking around with LINQ to XML and reports his findings to Carl about life with XDocuments and XElements. They also talk about the bridge classes that link (no pun intended) System.Xml and System.Xml.Linq.
Scott and Carl talk about Scott's 2007 Ultimate devoloper and power users tool list.
Scott and Carl talk about Scott's Family's recent move to Google Apps and Carl considers moving to Live Custom Domains. What are the benefits of moving your life into the cloud?
Scott chats with Robert Pickering, author of Foundations of F#. We ask the question 'Why F#?' and talk about functional languages and some of the features of F# that make it a great introduction to FP for .NET programmers.
