Good news

2008-01-14T21:20:00Z

The good news are that I'm still alive! (at least to me those are great news) In between work, family and several other activities I managed to add to my daily routine, I'm left with no time to post or keep this blog going at a decent pace. But I'll keep it alive... a post once in a while is better than nothing at all (well, I'm not so sure about that... :P)....(read more)

DevConnections

2007-11-12T16:37:00Z

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to stick to my promise and cover DevConnections as well as I wanted to. On my defense, I had all intentions to do that (and even wrote a lot of the content I wanted to post) but let’s just say that connectivity wasn’t “as available” as I hoped at the conference, so I didn’t have a chance to post anything there. Overall, the Fall 2007 DevConnections was a great conference, with great speakers, great topics and some information about what is coming. I will definitely be...(read more)

Get some food, make friends...

2007-10-12T17:51:00Z

User groups meetings are a wonderful place to meet people, talk and often expand business and technical contacts. But on most meetings, the time you can dedicate to interacting with other attendees is a little limited, so most of the time you don't get to know or talk to people as much as you'd like. With that in mind, the Utah .NET User Group has been organizing lunches, where people can get together and actually have a chance to talk and know each other. Past lunches have been very successful...(read more)

DevConnections 2007

2007-10-10T21:22:00Z

We just received confirmation of our registration to DevConnections. I'm very excited about several of the talks on the schedule and will be VERY hard to decide in between some of the concurrent ones. It should be a great event and I'm sure we'll have a great time in Vegas. During the conference, I'll try to keep my blog updated to provide "close to real time" information about what is going on. I know some people have tried that in the past but let's see how goo of...(read more)

WPF Screen Saver

2007-09-27T07:39:00Z

Here's a little project I put together. It is a screen saver that uses WPF and the Flickr API to display pictures based on tags, users or groups. This is just a little preview I'm making available. As time permits, I will be making this application a lot more feature rich, supporting not only more sources, but also different media types. I'm basically just looking for feedback and ideas I can add to the list I currently have, so please download the application here , give it a try and...(read more)

CS Setup

2007-09-10T20:25:00Z

Because of other needs, I decided to setup my own CS website . For that reason, I'll be moving my blog from the Utah .NET User Group website . The blog there will remain active, but it will just me a mirror of this one. I'd like to thank the user Read More......(read more)

Hello?!

2007-08-09T08:04:00Z

For anyone using Asterisk, we have just recently published nAsterisk. This is a managed implementation of FastAGI that will allow you to interface with Asterisk from managed code. When time permits, we'll work on an AMI implementation.

You can download binaries and source code from Codeplex here.

Enjoy!

Blogging again!

2007-08-07T20:01:00Z

Thanks to the Utah .NET User Group, I'm back to blogging again. The group has opened its blogging engine to members, and since I love convenience, this will be my new home. I'm excited to see the website grow as more and more users start blogging here. This will also give me the opportunity to see what other members are blogging about, since I can now subscribe to a single RSS from the user group site.
