From Matthew Mastracci: I just released the third alpha version of my open-source .NET profiling application. It supports everything I've thrown at it so far (multi-threaded programs, NAnt, SWF apps) and is getting close to feature-complete.
It comes with a basic VS.NET add-in that lets you profile from DevStudio. There is a source package on the downloads page for those who are interested in tinkering.
Download it at http://nprof.sourceforge.net
Here. This article presents the new features in WinForms, including new namespace features, new IDE features and how to develop apps that support multiple versions of the .NET Framework itself.
Here. This is the first of a 3 part series I wrote as an appendix to my WinForms book because I couldn't find the topic of object serialization covered adequately elsewhere in any of the popular texts.
This part covers the basics of text and binary serialization for simple types.
This is a recipe that I sent in for the O’Reilly title “Gastronomy for
Geeks”. It was handed down to me by my grandfather at our cabin on the lake. He
was into manly food that sticks to your rips and left the more delicate dishes
to my grandmother.
Ingredients
1 15oz can of cream-style corn
1 15oz can of non-cream-style corn (drained)
2 cups of crushed saltine crackers (although other crackers and even
potato chips work well)
3 eggs
1 cup of milk (scant)
1 tablespoon of butter or margarine
Number of Servings
9 normal human servings or
3 hungry developer servings
Directions
Grease 7″ cake pan (or nearest equivalent, Grandpa wasn’t picky)
Mix cream-style and drained non-cream-style corn together in mixing bowl
Spread 1/2 of the corn along the bottom of the cake pan
Spread 1/2 of the crackers over the layer of corn
Repeat for one more layer of corn and crackers
Beat eggs and milk together for 2 minutes in a mixing bowl (preferably
the corn mixing bowl, which should now be empty, to save on dishes that need
washing)
Put egg/milk mixture over the layers of corn and crackers, using a fork
to poke holes in the layers to allow egg/milk mixture to seep into all
crevices
Drop button (or margarine) in dots over the top
Bake at 350 for one hour or until top is golden brown
Bake at 200 for 30 more minutes for rustic Grandpa goodness
Let cool for as long as you can stand to wait, cut into pleasing shapes
and serve

Here. From Jed Farr: An annual survey by The Sunday Times tracked the UK's best companies to work for, with 10 tech companies in the top 100 -- including the top spot which was taken by Microsoft.
Here. Once I got some help from the friendly tech support, I'm finding that having my RSS feeds right inside of Outlook is very nice and. I miss the toast from FeedReader, but overall I'm enjoying NewsGator.
