The first release for 2011 is approaching, so we decided to share with you a bit more about what we are developing for our project management tool - TeamPulse. With Q1 2011 our plans are to significantly expand both the depth and the breadth of the application and project life-cycle spectrum TeamPulse covers. With the upcoming release TeamPulse will introduce the ability to record bugs, issues, and risks giving users greater insight into overall product quality. The product will also introduce Goal Management, adding an extra layer of “requirements” to help teams plan more effectively and align perspectives and needs....

"What is AdRotator control?", you would ask. A common definition for an AdRotator is a control that lets you to show some data (most commonly ads) and change it periodically. An AdRotator control should be a control that lets you do that out-of-the-box without writing any code. Furthermore, switching the ads with a nice animation will give our AdRotator more polished and glamorous look.
