C# 3.0 and LINQ

Paul Kinlan

I just watched an exciting Channel 9 video about the future of C# 3.0, featuring Anders Hejlsberg. It highlighted some game-changing features, including extending classes with new methods without derivation and the introduction of Lambda functions. One particularly cool feature is the addition of LINQ (Language Integrated Query), which extends IEnumerable objects with SQL-style operators. I'm still exploring how I can use this in my own projects, but it looks incredibly promising!

Channel 9 Re-Design

Paul Kinlan

I'm a big fan of Channel 9, a Microsoft website showcasing developer insights. Their recent redesign is fantastic! They've moved from a traditional blog layout to a more concise "Most Recent" section, putting important content front and center. The new comment section design is also visually appealing, with a unique element that seems to break free from traditional HTML constraints. The addition of a tagging section, similar to Technorati, is a valuable feature, allowing users to easily see popular topics and gauge community interest. Overall, two thumbs up for the Channel 9 redesign – excellent work!
