Yes, that sequence of words I said made perfect sense.

In an interesting turn of events, we (at Novell) will be sponsoring the MSDN Developer Conferences in January and February this year. If you've not heard about these events yet, they are basically a mini- PDC roadshow, with a good cross-section of some of the best content from the conference. The remaining...

Over the holidays, I did a bit of server housekeeping.  A few upgrades here, a migration or two there, etc. The brunt of this effort was moving the last of my applications off of my very old leased server , and onto an openSUSE 11.0 Xen image hosted at Linode.com .  Linode enables you to provision...

At the end of this month, I'm moving to Massachusetts. I don't know where in Mass., or exactly when, but that doesn't really matter. Before the end of the month, the family and I will hop in the Element and head in a northeasterly direction until we get pretty darn close to the ocean. Or maybe we'll...

Just over four years ago, I downloaded Mono and began working with ASP.NET on Linux. Around that same time, I started Arc Focus as a .NET consulting firm focused on "developing for a cross-platform future". In the years since, I've watched Mono grow more interesting each day, from enabling...
