Wondering what happens inside those .NET classes?????????

Do you program using Whidbey???? or even VS.NET 2003????
I do, with Whidbey beta 1.
Anyway somebody pointed me to a product available freely. I, the inquisitive one downloaded it.
Executed it.
Looked good.
But what about the functionality???
It loaded up some dlls i had seen in .NET.. But what the heck he had used System.Reflection just to get the functions, something I had been doing long ago.
Was about to close it when i realised that the methods mentioned were links. As usual the curious me decided to explore.
Assuming that it will take me to msdn help for that method i clicked.
And lo and behold it showed me, I am serious, the full code in C#. Wow, there's something I can't do. Imagine knowing the IL for .NET and using it to build a full fledged disassembler. I seriously recommended dotnet Reflector found at Lutz Roeder's Programming.NET C# VB CLR WinFX for a really serious programmer. Found at the site are various other superb tools.

News Feature

Enough of idle minds' posts. Instead got down to the engines of coding and coded the "Top News Stories", available on the right :D, on the side bar. Initially on load of the page, i was planning to show all the current top stories, accessing it from other sites. But, IE seems to have some security restrictions on a web page accessing resources of other web sites. Ok, i think that's what it is. So it pops up some security message. So i have shifted over to using a textbox and a "Go" button. On the click of the "Go" all the news as per the xml feed in the text box will be displayed. Go ahead and try it, but remember to click "Yes" on the security warning. Anyway for the knowledgeable. On click of the "Go!!!" it uses XmlHttpRequest , retrieves the XML feed from the site mentioned in the text box and displays it in "user friendly" format.

The fight is in the open

Been busy lately and so have not managed to post for quite long. But I just had to post this. This post is dedicated to all persons who dont know anything about the fight between MS and Google: Check out the links starting from: http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9588_22-5875433.html?tag=nl.e589 There are more links as you get thru the article. Be sure to read those too. And just as a side-note: Check out " Atlas ". These are client side and server side components, which easily (??) enable you to make Web calls. This is done by encapsulating AJAX. (please dont insult by telling me that you dont know what that is).

Finally decided

I have been having these various itch since quite some time. Both about what i am doing here (where i work) and what am i meant to do. Finally, i have decided "I need a job change". I guess IT services industry was never meant to be the right industry for me. Don't get me wrong there, it's not that i wanna quit because i am not getting any interesting work, it's just that I have ideas about life which does not match with what my company is doing. (As amatter of fact, they have some really beautiful concepts which are great to work on). But i have believed web to be the future and now i have started realising that personal dreams do become quite a pain in the neck, when they are ignoired. Huh.... now that i put it on a log, i feel much better. Back to work...
