Thycotic Team Blog On Software Development
This is my first post to this blog in almost a year ! I have actually been blogging the last few months but not on this blog. We decided to create a blog for our whole development team so individuals could post interesting items without having to commit to being a total blogger.
We have also committed to a regular posting schedule and Josh (our graphic designer) has assumed the role of 'editor in chief' ensuring that a post from someone on the team goes out every week on Thursday.
Where is this new team blog then?
You can get to the blog here:

What's been posted?
There are already 15 posts from the team with topics such as:
- Fun with Anonymous Types and LINQ
- Bankers Rounding in .NET
- The Power of Yield Return
- Developer's Uphill Journey from Custom Development to Software Vendor (this discusses the hurdles Thycotic encountered when starting our product group).
- How sleeping through my alarm taught me a lesson in software usability
- Writing Silverlight apps with Dynamic Languages like IronRuby and IronPython
The topics will always have a software development focus but will vary from agile topics, to new tools/techniques to software usability and software marketing depending on the poster.
What's going to happen to this blog?
I will be resuming my posting to this blog which will continue to focus on mostly team lead issues and best practices for Test Driven Development, Pair Programming and Agile in general. Most of my encounters these days are from the perspective of a software development manager but I do still write a decent amount of code every day.
I will still be posting on our team blog from time to time but this blog will be used for smaller, more informal meanderings.
I am happy to be back - thanks for reading!
