As you’ve probably heard, Google is testing AdSense within RSS on a single site.

I saw this post on Don Park’s blog…

UPDATE: Mea culpa! Maurice pointed out that (except for the casing) my original expression WAS correct. I only needed the RegexOptions.SingleLine option. I didn’t need to add the (\s|\n) everywhere. Here’s a corrected post. Thanks Maurice!

I’m chatting with my buddy Micah who will ask me a question and then annoyingly answer it himself immediately after. For example, he asked me how FireFox picks up an icon from web pages. I replied that there’s a favicon protocol but that I didn’t know the details. He then proceeded to explain how to format the link tag properly.

A while ago I wrote about Seppuku, Katanas, and Samurai and made a joking reference to Hattori Hanzo.

Yesterday I wrote about a neat Trillianfeature that highlights words with their Wikipedia definition.

One thing I’ve found annoying at times with the DataGrid control is there’s no way to specify a title to be displayed above the headers. Being lazy, I often resorted to adding a label above the data grid followed by a br tag.

In some circles, today’s a very special day. And 4:20 today is a special time for this special day. If your coworker has a serious need to take a smoke break around 4 o’clock today and comes back with a lot of munchies, you know what’s up.

Yesterday Akumi pointed at my elbow in shock and asked me what happened.

What will this code write to the console?

Looking through my statistics today and I noticed that I received a lot of hits from this post about Google Maps using satellite photography.

UPDATE: As a commenter pointed out, the original code example did not properly demonstrate the problem with locking on the this keyword within a normal method. I have corrected this example and wrote a better example that demonstrates that this problem still exists even in a “normal” method.

This is a bug fix release. Check out Dare’s list of fixes to find out more.

In T-SQL, you can use the @@IDENTITY keyword to obtain the value of the identity column when you insert a new record. For example, the following query inserts a record into an imaginary table and returns a result set containing the ID of the inserted column.

This is old news, but I am so glad that the Family Guy is “uncancelled”. It truly is of “The Simpsons” caliber of humor.
