switching to RSS Bandit?
Everyone (including me) has been raving for the last month or so about SharpReader (rightfully so).
However, in that same time frame Dare and Torsten have made HUGE strides with RSSBandit. I am actually starting to feel like a kid in a candy store. I am going to play around with RSSBandit over the weekend, but I think I might be making a switch. I really like the tabbed browsing and hitting the space bar to tab through new items (see some more new updates here). Again, Great Work. -
XMLAuto, xmltramp... X#?
Aaron Swartz created xmltramp as an easy way to manipulate XML documents in Python.

Generic comparer
I had lost the link to these smart pieces of code here and here.
Now I'll be able to find them again :-) Might be of interest to others as well. -
Tips from Scott Guthrie himself
Wow.
This is the cleanest solution to one of ASP.NET most common problems, setting focus:
Scott Guthrie notes in his Blackbelt WebForms presentation:
[Richard Caetano]
Sub SetFocus(ByVal controlToFocus As Control)
Dim scriptFunction As New StringBuilder
Dim scriptClientId As String
scriptClientId = controlToFocus.ClientID
scriptFunction.Append("<script language='javascript'>")
scriptFunction.Append("document.getElementById('")
scriptFunction.Append(scriptClientId)
scriptFunction.Append("').focus();")
scriptFunction.Append("</script>")
RegisterStartupScript("focus", scriptFunction.ToString())
End Sub
The sample is from Scott's new set of slides here.
Richard beat me to it :), Very clean. -

Don't worry Luke. Keep up the good work!
People are reading to quickly nowadays. This is understandable due to the amount of information wa have to face and the quantity of weblogs around.
But people, please pay attention before commenting on something you've read too fast. -
