Windows Phone 7 - Devices. ReadyBoost - Windows 7. Enter your email address:. Since a while back I’ve been thinking of moving this blog. I wanted to host it on my own domain and also wanted to swap platform. At first I was looking at BlogEngine.NET for platform because I liked the idea of a .NET based platform. But after some reading and pondering I decided to also test the most used platform, WordPress. Wednesday, January 05, 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Windows Phone 7 - Links. Mike Ormonds list o...

Windows Phone 7 - Devices. ReadyBoost - Windows 7. Enter your email address:. Having problems installing Zune software on Win 7? If you, like me, just got your Windows Phone 7 device. Then you are probably installing it and setting everything up. If you are unlucky you might recognize this little box from trying to install the Zune software on your computer. If you are running a Windows 7 N or KN version, the above error is due to Windows Media Player not being installed with these versions. First call I...

West Coast Grid: Of Course Scaling Matters!
http://westcoastgrid.blogspot.com/2005/12/of-course-scaling-matters.html
Grid computing, distributed computing, SOA, SaaS, and .NET- and how they all fit together. Thursday, December 08, 2005. Of Course Scaling Matters! The controversy over at Jeremy Wright’s Blog. Which started with this post. Hasn't slowed down much. He's gotten a ton of comments, flames, and posts. He defends himself here. Small things like managing how transactions occur, having separate database connections for reading and writing, making your app able to handle variable state sessions, etc are key.

West Coast Grid: November 2007
http://westcoastgrid.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Grid computing, distributed computing, SOA, SaaS, and .NET- and how they all fit together. Monday, November 12, 2007. See you at SuperComputing! One more time: see you in Reno at SuperComputing. I've got a bunch of meetings, but when I'm not in a meeting I'll be standing in the AMD booth showing off a .NET deskside "supercomputer." (I have to put that in quotes because there will be real. Super computers there.). So watch this space, but watch that space, too. Posted by Dan Ciruli. Posted by Dan Ciruli.

West Coast Grid: I'm all for scalability
http://westcoastgrid.blogspot.com/2008/08/im-all-for-scalability.html
Grid computing, distributed computing, SOA, SaaS, and .NET- and how they all fit together. Friday, August 01, 2008. I'm all for scalability. I love being quoted by that coffee-roasting, free-diving, Hawai'i living, .NET expert Larry O'Brien. So I was quite please to read my name in his latest SD Times column. He quoted a tweet (yes, I love Twitter. Where I quoted a fellow CloudCamp attendee saying "Designing your app to scale is guaranteed failure—it will take too long to write.". Coincided with my own.

West Coast Grid: Sarah Perez Looks at Microsoft's Cloud
http://westcoastgrid.blogspot.com/2008/07/sarah-perez-looks-at-microsofts-cloud.html
Grid computing, distributed computing, SOA, SaaS, and .NET- and how they all fit together. Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Sarah Perez Looks at Microsoft's Cloud. Sarah Perez at ReadWriteWeb. Has a pretty darn good post. Up about Microsoft's cloud efforts (at least the publicly announced cloud efforts). Their vision of a "connected OS" is deeper than anything I see from any vendor. Their software stack spans consumer apps and enterprise apps. But as Sarah points out, Ray Ozzie's Microsoft 2.0 is focused on t...

January 10, 2009. Fix damaged DVD using freeware tools. 8212; mpknet @ 11:33 pm. I had some DVDs that had minor reading errors.

However, raw videos are available. Replace the damaged parts in the DVD, rather than burning the entire DVD again. 5: Now we need to use a freeware tool FixVTS ( Download it. 6: Move the backup direct...

December 20, 2007. Destructor not getting called for an object in an ASP.NET web form. 8212; mpknet @ 2:51 am. We noticed this when debugging an IDispose() implementation for an object. However when forced to garbage collect for testing, ( GC.Collect() ), the destructor was being called. Further research showed that we need to override the page function instead. Public override void Dispose(). One of the base dispose function calls GC.SuppressFinalize(), causing Destructor not being called.

January 25, 2008. WordPress and Hotmail spam control, Microsoft Live Writer etc…. 8212; mpknet @ 6:27 am. I am really impressed by the SPAM Control filters offered by WordPress blog comments and also Hotmail emails. Very effective. There is some potential for loosing some good comments/emails, but the benefit far outweighs. One thing I like to see is “automatic signature” for each blog account that will be padded to each blog entry. Older Posts ». AI : Anand Iyer. Sacramento .Net User Group.
