Software

  • Roland Weigelt’s GhostDoc: GhostDoc is a free add-in for Visual Studio that automatically generates XML documentation comments for C#. Either by using existing documentation inherited from base classes or implemented interfaces, or by deducing comments from name and type of e.g. methods, properties or parameters
  • thirteen23 blu: Thirteen23 has a fantastic-looking WPF-based Twitter client called Blu (formerly *chirp). I would use this app exclusively in an instant if it would JUST LET ME RESIZE ITS WINDOW. How in the name of everything holy is it possible that someone who can build an app this good-looking can neglect absolutely basic functionality like a simple resizable window and font (my eyesight is not very good) is completely beyond me. Looks is not everything, guys, you need the brains too! Get your priorities right!
  • Microsoft Recite: Michael Kogeler talks about Microsoft Recite, a Technology Preview from Microsoft for easy note-taking on Windows Mobile
  • What’s New in Windows Mobile 6.5: Miel Van Opstal outlines what’s new in Windows Mobile 6.5

Hardware

  • Nokia busts out its own 8 megapixel slider: the N86: Now that everyone and their girlfriend have a 12 megapixel digital camera, the good ol’ megapixel war is starting al over again in the mobile phone world. Pretty soon, your will need at least a dozen megapixels in your mobile phone just to not be regarded sub-human.

Social

  • MS Community.be: MSCommunity.be is the landing page for the Belgian Microsoft community. The purpose of the site is giving you an overview of all the events being organized by the Belgian user groups so you’ll never miss out on an event anymore.
  • Rai.tv: Who’d a thunk it? RAI TV, Italy’s state broadcaster, has a great Silverlight web site.
  • App Store Legal Smackdown: iFart Mobile vs. Pull My Finger: Sometimes reality is funnier than fiction. The two bigshots (no pun intended) of fake farting applications (I’ve been waiting for years to use those 3 words together!) battle it out in court.
