Get started by using ASP.Net Web API and NancyFx with OWIN/Katana
Many of you may have probably already heard about OWIN (Open Web Interface for .Net) and Katana that implements OWIN and use different components for supporting OWIN, for example System.Web and System.Net.HttpListener. If you haven't heard about OWIN or Katana before, please read the following: OWIN and Katana.

Team Foundation Server 2012 build notification using ASP.Net Web API
For the last three years I have helped a financial company with a business critical financial system. I have the role as an architect and coach when it comes to system design. I also spend times to make the team work more efficiently, to release new features with high quality, and maintainable code faster. So the last months I have spent a lot of time with a Deployment Process, to see how we can use Continuous Delivery. We use Visual Studio 2012 and Team Foundation Server 2012 (TFS) as our configuration system. We use gated check-ins (The goal is to use branch by abstractions, so the team work against one mainline only, to remove the "merge hell"). Even if we use gated check-ins we had to disable some acceptance tests because the time it takes for them to run. Instead we use a build that runs at lunch time and one at the night to include the acceptance tests (Those needs to be observed by the team). So far TFS have worked perfect, both for Gated check-in and Continuous Integration for the mainline. We also use TFS for a "push deployment" to our internal test and UAT environment. Everything is automated. We haven't yet "enable" the "push-deploy" against our production environment yet.

Using Razor engine together with Asp.Net Web API to create a Hypermedia API
This blog post is created just for fun, and it's will be about how we can use Razor to create a Hypermedia API using XML as a hypermedia for a "Maze game" inspired from the book "Building Hypermedia APIs with HTML5 and Node", Mike Amundsen. Only the server-side API is covered in this blog post, so no Client.

ASP.Net Web API and using Razor the next step
In my previous blog post “Using Razor together with ASP.NET Web API” I wrote about a solution to use a MediaTypeFormatter to render HTML by using Razor when the API is accessed from a browser. I’m now sort of done with the basics and will share the current solution in this blog post. The source code will later be available.
I decided to make the solution more extendable so I created a HtmlMediaTypeViewFormatter that inherits from the MediaTypeFormatter: -
Using Razor together with ASP.NET Web API
On the blog post “If Then, If Then, If Then, MVC” I found the following code example:

ASP.NET Web API Exception Handling
When I talk about exceptions in my product team I often talk about two kind of exceptions, business and critical exceptions. Business exceptions are exceptions thrown based on “business rules”, for example if you aren’t allowed to do a purchase. Business exceptions in most case aren’t important to log into a log file, they can directly be shown to the user. An example of a business exception could be "DeniedToPurchaseException”, or some validation exceptions such as “FirstNameIsMissingException” etc.

Log message Request and Response in ASP.NET WebAPI
By logging both incoming and outgoing messages for services can be useful in many scenarios, such as debugging, tracing, inspection and helping customers with request problems etc. I have a customer that need to have both incoming and outgoing messages to be logged. They use the information to see strange behaviors and also to help customers when they call in for help (They can by looking in the log see if the customers sends in data in a wrong or strange way).
