Learnt a few things but went hungry…
What’s the deal that we missed pizza etc
Poor show, sitting there hungry while trying to digest c# stuff…..
News
– There was something about Microsoft Slashing Pricing by 15 to 25% for enterprise server software?
- .Net Code Camp in first weekend in April…
Slide Rocket is cool to do presentations…Can then output to PowerPoint.
Does nice spinning like a cube and allows you to easily select pictures from flicker etc
iPhone
They showed some of the new apple features coming up for the iPod….Maybe that’s why we got no pizza!!!!
Interesting how many apps and developers are into this now, all with apple taking 30% cut of everything!
Wait till the european commission tells apple to cut the monopoly!
There was even a dmf like app for SharePoint that runs on the iPhone!!!!
Saas stuff was though provoking.
There are quite a few things in the cloud and they are getting very compelling as an alternative.
Things like using external providers for bulk emailing, accounting, CRM, Support….
e.g.
Saasu for accounting rather than myob……cheaper and better and web based!
Constant Contact or Campaign Monitor for bulk emailing / newsletters as they have anti-spam agreements you can safely bulk email etc…
Noting the Campaign Monitor is sydney based…..
Zendesk and LivePerson for support
Cross site scripting – making your site more hackerproof
Then a quick one on cross site scripting and how an enterprising guy wrote some javascript he put into his facebook page that wrote a comment in anyone’s page who visited his.
Just a case of adding javascript to do something in a comments area on a web page…think blogs as well etc…
That hack got a good comment about him on thousands of pages very rapidly…..
In .net you can ensure comments cannot have javascript inserted by using html encoding….or antixss.htmlencode …..
Or write a function and add it to your tagmapping in the web.config for all lables and literals…….
6 Design Patterns…
Heavy stuff and kind of do some of them anyway depending on the situation.
For more information suggested first going to Wikipedia…also good for lots of other coding situations and information.
Interestingly the suggest was that there is a book “Head First Design Patterns” code patterns with a blonde with pony tails on the front – obviosuly marketing ot the geek factor…
Even though it is in java, to translate to c# is as simple as 1 line…..
The other book was c# 3.0 design patterns….
Justin King the presneter said he had another book about design patterns but it was so boring he fell asleep on every page.
www.dofactory.com has examples one can download examples from teh books above...
