Now for a basic overview of Cleveland GiveCamp, check out this post from Bob at Simplex-IT or even this video made by my favorite [...]
The Browser Whisperer
Posted by: sarah on: July 18, 2011
Cesar Milan has a way with dogs; he is known as The Dog Whisperer. He manages to get even the most misunderstood dog to not be as bad as its owner makes it to be. I thought about Cesar while having a discussion with a fellow web developer recently. This developer and I have been [...]

Not only did I say goodbye to BlogEngine.NET, but I’ve also decided to cut my ties with DiscountASP.NET. I don’t need .NET hosting for what I do and now nor do I need DiscountASP.NET, and here’s why: I write blogs about what I do in technology, sometimes about .NET stuff. When I do write about [...]
Wishing Internet Explorer would finally be a real browser…
Posted by: sarah on: January 23, 2011
As I play with browsers, I’ve fallen for Internet Explorer 9. It isn’t as much of a hassle to develop for anymore, finally choosing standards that seem to be close to what the other browsers use.

SUX: Silverlight Edition
Posted by: sarah on: June 16, 2010
Sometimes, things appear in the SUX (Sarah on User eXperience) series because they work contrary to my expectations. Silverlight is one of those things. For a web technology, Silverlight is more an app developer’s domain than a website developer’s domain. It really requires an application development train of thought. In these past few weeks, I’ve [...]
Looking into PHP on Windows…
Posted by: sarah on: June 2, 2010
While I was looking at the Web Application Gallery that I have available via my DiscountASP control panel, I noticed an old familiar app on the list. I did a double take, as I couldn’t believe it. Yes, one of the apps I used to play with back before I became a dev full-time - [...]

Silverlight 4 - Webcam Permissions Out of Browser?
Posted by: sarah on: May 16, 2010
While playing around with Silverlight 4 and working on my demos for my talk on Tuesday at the Cleveland WPF User Group, I came across a peculiar situation. I’ve got a webcam demo and wanted to see just what I could do with it to add my touches to it. Of course, being the curious [...]

Inspired by Rails Rumble, Sara Chipps and JP Toto are inviting us to take part in the MVC Melee. Sharpen those MVC skills - ASP.NET MVC 1.0 and 2.0 will be supported and are the weapons in this battle. Put together a team of 1 to 4 people, and create an MVC app in 48 hours [...]
