Give Camp FTW!
I spent this last weekend at GiveCamp - Ann Arbor helping out charities. If you've never heard of Givecamp, you should dentally check out the link. A Give Camp is a weekend-long event where software developers, designers, and database administrators donate their time to create custom software for non-profit organizations. This custom software could be a new website for the nonprofit organization, a small data-collection application to keep track of members, or a application for the Red Cross that ......

My traveling talk begins with CODODN!
The C# variety Show began on Thursday with my trip to GLUG.net in Lansing, (this is a great group of guys and gals, and if your free, I highly recommend you to attend, they even have a user group in Flint now!) and didn't stop until yesterday when I got home from CODODN. At about 6:30 on Friday, Mr. McWherter shows up at my house and the road trip begins. After about 4.5 hours, stopping only for necessities we arrive in Wilmington Ohio around. After checking in at the hotel adjoined to the conference ......

On the road again...
Hey everybody (Hi Dr. Dave). I'm confirmed for two speaking engagements this month! Woot! Apparently my XNA talk grew legs and is ready to walk. Next week (Nov. 20th) I'll be out at the West Michigan .Net user group and then I'll be heading down to Detroit for the IDGA user group (a indy, game developer user group...very cool!) I'll be giving talks similar to the one I gave at DoDN, but this time, i've prepared a special demo. this demo works kinda like the web game Collapse, except it takes advantage ......

One month to the day...
And I have'nt made a post? In all honesty, the trip to Japan really knocked the wind out of me. So now it's pressing deadlines and fenagling conference calls. I'm also in the process of learning some Japanese. Its an interesting language, and as a developer, I thik it is constructed in a logical way thats easy to break down. Easier in some ways than English, and harder in others. I'm looking at doing another tech in 5 min soon, but i want to get your feeback first. I'm kicking around these ideas ......

Lmao!!!
This has got to be one of the most halirous posts i've read lately: All in RE to software development.. This excrept alone... in businesswe often try other strategies with dead horses, including thefollowing: Buying a stronger whip.Changing riders.Say things like, "This is the way we have always ridden this horse." Just halirous, how many times have your bosses said something similar ......

All is quiet on the Redding front...
So it's been an eventful few weeks. But finally things have calmed down enough that I can enjoy pawning my thoughts off on you, oh gentle reader. I've gotten some excellent feedback concerning my tech in 5 min. articles. Especially the one on Yield Return, so I'll definitely be writing more as inspiration hits me. What do you guys want to see articles on? I'm planning another patterns and practices one for my next post, but I could be persuaded. My good buddy Josh Holmes (who has an excellent philosophical ......

I'm not dead yet!
Like Bill Wagner "If your not blogging, your dead, or atleast thats what people think" And i'm here to tell you all...you don't get off that easy. We've got alot of great things comming up for out next AADND meeting: First off, were starting a book exchange. The exchange system works on points, and each book will have a specific value. It's real simple. Any book after '00 when donated is worth yy in points, when taking books out, they are valued at yy*2. You earn points by brining in books, attending ......

So i'm creating a clone in C#. I'll throw some source code up here in the near future. Whats the best is I'm thinking of doing the UI stuff with WPF. That has yet to see any fruation. The blog ......

Why blog?
Ok. So I’m sitting at the bar waiting for my buddy Josh to show up. Sipping my scotch etc... When he does show up, he whips out his new toy (stop snickering). What I saw was some gadget hooked up to an iPod. Then he stuffs a mic in my face and demands that I talk like he's Castro during the Bay of Pigs. (You can listen here) So I manage to stammer out something short of bizarre about the Command Pattern. All goes well till he starts to ask about my blog, and/or website. What are you thinking?! I ......
