iTunesCommander moves…

I’ve moved my little project iTunesCommander to Google Code. CI isn’t set up yet but since it’s such a small project, I’m in no rush to get it done.

Iota – WPF Twitter Client…

I’ve been working with Windows Presentation Foundation for a little while now and while I’m certainly no expert, I seem to be getting better. This is an attempt to marry it with Twitter, a recent addiction of mine. Here’s a couple of early screenshots so you can see how it (and I) progressed. It’s by no means done and I’m hoping that a few folks out there might give me a hand but you can check it out here.

CitCon 2007…

This past weekend CitCon North America, pronounced kit-kon NOT sit-kon for those, like myself, who were unaware, was held here in Dallas. It was a limited engagement but I was lucky enough to get a spot so I thought I’d give you my impressions of the event. Friday night was a the meet & greet and planning for the sessions. The conference adheres to the Open Spaces idea and I have to admit I was pretty skeptical. There are no formal speakers or talks but rather semi-organized discussions surrounding the ideas that the participants put forth. Sounded pretty touchy-feely and little too hippy for me (in spite of my environmental bent I don’t classify myself as “crunchy”) but I have to say that I found it to be significantly more informative. No one really wandered off, in spite of the rule allowing you to do so, because the discussions were free to meander to topics that were important to the group.

Not to be completely neglectful, there were several vendors there to show off their CI software or a new book but it was such a minute part of the experience. I look forward to hanging out with some of my new friends and hope to enjoy their company again soon.

Oh and I’d be remiss if I didn’t share a photo of the book autograph. That’s right boys & girls, I got Martin Fowler to sign my copy of “Refactoring“!!
