The cat is out of the bag and despite rumors of my retirement from writing, I am actually contributing to another book.

Imagine my surprise when I was reading 'Collective Intelligence In Action' and I saw MY name inside the book!

Recently I wrote an article for MSDN Magazine. The subject of the article is about planning for and designing state maintenance and sharing within peer networks. Overall I think the article turned out quite well.

This blog post takes a look at why some sites and publishing companies, notably O'Reilly, are publishing code samples for native iPhone development and even publishing books that condone iPhone hacking.

A book I wrote some time ago, Visual C# 2005 Unleashed, which covers everything from ASP.NET to ADO.NET, has been republished in Chinese!

Continuous LINQ (CLINQ) is a library that builds on the LINQ query syntax to allow you to write a query once that continually updates the result set as the source collection (and items within it) are modified

If you happen to be on the campus, or work on the campus, head to the MS company store and pick up a copy of SharePoint 2007 Development Unleashed!

So I've been dragging my butt on getting to work on my fantasy novel in earnest. Maybe National Novel Writing Month will get the juices flowing.

I wrote an article on the power of language extensions and LINQ, using Continuous LINQ as an example - for Dr. Dobb's Journal. It will be featured in the February 2008 edition, which is on shelves in January 2008.

I've been doing a little bit of introspection lately and I thought I would share some of my thoughts on writing, looking back at 14 books, 2 years of blogging, and several published articles.

I've agreed to write a new book for Addison-Wesley entitled, "Cocoa and .NET Programming" that takes the reader through building a suite of powerful desktop applications - for both Mac and Windows!

I recently wrote an article for Dr. Dobb's journal detailing a Web 2.0 project that I did with LINQ to SQL and an early CTP of ADO.NET vNext. The article is in the January 2007 edition of Dr. Dobb's.

As you know, I'm cramming to try and finish up the drafts for the SharePoint book. I'm also doing a lot of work with LINQ in my "spare" time... I wondered what might happen if you combine them.

With the impending doom...er...Release to Manufacturing of the Office 2007 System, including Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS), we have precious little time left to finish the first drafts of our book.

Its far too easy to take a look at SharePoint Features and completely underestimate their value and power. This article will hopefully try and distill SharePoint 2007 Features and illustrate how SP 2007 couldn't have been built without them.

Yesterday I picked up the Beta 2 Tech Refresh of SharePoint Server 2007 and Windows SharePoint Services v3 and went to town. This article contains my impressions
