    I am writing a book!

    Yes I am! I can finally announce that and I am sooo excited! I have been working with the Apress guys, most importantly Jonathan Hassell, on starting an intermediate-level book on Windows PowerShell (formerly known as Monad). We have finished the book proposal checklist (a huge one, mind you) and it got approved. I am now off to finishing the paperwork related to contracts and other boring stuff and I have already started writing. The book is tentatively titled Ubiquitous Automation with Windows PowerShell. I am an automation freak and I want to help everyone in the world reap the benefits of becoming...

Some info that you may find useful when reading the code in no particular order:The ScriptControls project is the real control library.

    WebDD – pure web dev enjoyment

    Last Saturday was quite an eventful day! Me and Zhivko attended the WebDD conference in Reading, England, and I have been meaning to post a small review about the entire thing. The sessions I attended were really great. This was my first time seeing Scott Guthrie present and I can only say that he’s a real presentation machine. He gave 4 talks in a single day and then repeated one of them, so that people that did not have the chance to attend it could do so. I watched Dave Verwer give an incredible talk on writing unobtrusive JavaScript or script that works when it can and leaves your site usable for browsers with...

    WebDD

    Just came back from this year's webDD event at the Microsoft campus in Reading, UK and wanted to give a big thank you to Dave and Phil and all the organizers for the great experience - it was an insightful weekend with Scott Guthries' news on AJAX and WPFe, and a great chance to check back on industry developments with fellow designers and developers. With web standards and the Rails technology heavily emphasized in the sessions, it was truly refreshing to see in action Microsoft's recent dedication to industry standards and their openness to alternative frameworks. Dave Verwer's lecture on Unobtrusive...
