    The mythic r.a.d.grid

    Ever since the first build of r.a.d.grid I've had a feeling that there's something "divine" about it:)It seems that I was right. After a Google search I found out that our beloved ASP.NET grid control has the same name (without the dots) as one of the characters in ancient Norse mythology. Apart from the initial surprise that r.a.d.grid is female, I finally have unquestionable information regarding r.a.d.grid's divine nature:http://www.godchecker.com/pantheon/norse-mythology.php?deity=RADGRIDWho could argue that there's a better grid than one with divine origins?:)...

    A big day for Bulgarian football fans

    The last few years have been really disappointing for Bulgarian football fans as none of our teams passed the first round of the UEFA cup and the Champions League. Sometimes it was a matter of luck, sometimes it was a matter of horrible play but the end result was the same year after year - Bulgarian participation ended very early. Yesterday everything changed - 3 out of 4 Bulgarian teams made it to the UEFA groups after 3 1:0 epic wins. It could have been four wins, but Lokomotiv Plovdiv lost 2:1 to Bolton. The English team was trailing the whole game...

    And the winner is....

    Today we finally drew the lucky winner of the Trivia Game Show that was held at the telerik booth during the Expo hours at PDC 2005 in Los Angeles. The winner of the top prize - the  very desirable XBOX 360 - is Laijun Xie with Thomson Financial. We have pre-ordered the XBOX 360 on Amazon and the console should arrive via courier somewhere in December, perhaps just in time for Xmas:) Coming to think of it, I should also ask Santa for one. I am still playing Super Mario Bros on my Nintendo 1988 box but the XBOX 360 looks like a good...

    telerik at PDC

     Guess what, seems like we will be making our debut at an industry event. Up until now we have only been visitors at VS Live, ASP Connections, TechEd, etc. but as a PDC sponsor we decided that it's time we be amongst exhibitors. It's a great opportunity for us to meet with all telerik customers and partners. If you are attending PDC, make sure you stop by booth #423. We'd love to meet you guys and break out of the "virtual" relationship we have with most of you. We've also got some nice surprises for those of you who stop by:)...

    BLOG 101: An introduction to blogging with Hristo Deshev

    Hi there! I am much excited to start my very own "telerik powered" weblog.  This will be my way to share technical and nontechnical information with whomever finds that exciting (and not damaging to his health of course).  The focus will fall mainly on my adventures in ASP.NET server components creation and maintenance from the perspective of my telerik position.  I will try to share both the good and the bad parts of the job, so that you gain a wider perspective. I am an agile advocate, so you can expect a lot of agile, and mainly extreme programming (XP) related content here.  I believe this trend in software...
