Visual Studio 2013 Breakpoint Labels – The ability to add labels to breakpoints has been around since Visual Studio 2010, but I was until recently unaware of this feature. How could this be possible? Well I maintain that as a general rule, many developers learn just enough to get them by. After that they accidentally discover new features.

Virgin America – I remember the first time I flew on a plane. I attentively listened to the safety demonstration and read the safety booklet. I made a mental note of the exits and kept an eye on the warning lights overhead to see when I could loosen my seatbelt.

These days, I often have to fly to Johannesburg and I already know the drill. Needless to say, I can go up front and do the safety demonstration myself. These safety demonstrations are mandated by the FAA and if you fly regularly, you will be used to them already.

This is why I really enjoyed the latest safety demonstration video released by Virgin America. If you have been watching CNN over the past few days, you might have seen the video already.

I just thought that it was too good not to share it here too. (more…)

Crypto Logger For Net – If you have been developing software for any length of time, you will know that at some point or another you will be required to log application events such as errors or other information. This is especially true if you are creating an application without a user interface such as a Windows Service.

Ahna Hendrix – There is a lot of creativity that goes into everything that Ahna leaves her mark on. Since I have known her, I have been intrigued by her zest for life and how she applies that to business.

I feel that there is a lot that we can learn from Ahna’s approach to Social Media and her approach to business as a whole. I wanted to find out more about her and her dreams, hopes and goals for her future.
