From Telerik VP: Microsoft + ASP.NET + Open Source: This Time for Sure!
Bullwinkle: “Hey Rocky! Watch me pull a rabbit out of a hat!” Rocky: “Again? That trick never works!” Bullwinkle: “This time for sure!” In the last week or so, I’ve heard mixed reactions to Scott Hanselman’s eye-popping announcement that, in addition to ASP.NET MVC that is already open source, that Microsoft is releasing ASP.NET Web API and Razor as open source as well. Further, and this is the big deal: Microsoft is going to take contributions on their open source ASP.NET components and ship those contributions in the box for future major releases. Of course, this is big news on the face of it, but some... -

Writing a JustCode Code Cleaning Extension
I recently decided to clean up an open source project, and the best tool I found for the job was Telerik JustCode’s Code Clean option. If you’ve never tried it, open the JustCode Options, go to Code Cleaning, then use the drop down to select Full (built-in) and press the “Set as Default” button. If you wish, you can use the “New” or “Clone” button to set up your own profile that matches your coding style. Afterwards, return to a piece of code file and press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F and watch your (co-worker’s) code be processed into a thing of beauty. Opening a... -

Have an idea for a start-up? Don’t fall in love with it.
The news today is buzzing with the announcement of Facebook’s acquisition of Instagram for $1billion. Instagram co-founders, Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, literally had a billion dollar idea. The idea for Instagram was also Systrom and Krieger’s Plan B. Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger raised $500k of seed funding from Baseline Ventures and Andreessen Horowitz while working on Plan A in early 2010. The original idea for Instagram was called Burbn, a check-in app that competed with Foursquare and allowed you to check-in to locations and add photos and videos to your check-in. Burbn’s focus was suppose to be a mash-up of Foursquare and Mafia Wars (where the name Burbn... -

Lazy Programming for Smarties
As a programmer, I can honestly say that I am lazy. Forget the menial job of repeating tasks... if it takes me an hour to complete an iteration, I would rather spend 3 hours automating the process. You never know when you might need to do it again, and the click of a button is much more satisfying than an hour of processing data. I know I’m not the only one who feels this way either, otherwise Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas wouldn’t have codified the DRY principle in The Pragmatic Programmer…. Don’t Repeat Yourself. Visual Studio makes it easy to be... -

Print your data with RadGridView for WinForms in a few quick steps
We are sure you will agree that the highly demanded Printing support for RadGridView for WinForms was welcomed warmly by your end-users. We wanted to make sure that the Print Preview, Print Settings and Watermark dialogs will make the printing as easy as possible, but at the same time they will enable end-users to customize the printing output to the smallest detail. The result is that you can print a RadGridView with a call to the Print() method and the grid is send to the printer. On the other hand if you want to customize the result by using code, you have a... -
