Visual Studio 2010 Performance
After 3 years running with the same system (XP 64 bit), I finally decided to move on - and install Windows 7 Pro 64bit. I had been waiting for this step in order to also move to VS2010.

2 Great iPhone apps
How good is your watermelon? See: http://delafranco.com/iwatermelon/
Do you want a hot iPhone girlfriend? See: http://www.mygirlapp.com/
Disclaimer – I don't know these guys, and never actually used these apps (I don't even have an iPhone), but I found the ideas cool (even if a little .. freaky).

Finally - Compiler as a Service in C#
I've been ranting about the lack of a C# scripting tool for a long long long time. Finally, it has come by means of Mono's Compiler as a Service, now available to Windows users as well.
Thanks to my colleague Dan for pointing this out.Posted by Ilan Assayag at 3:23 PM 0 comments

Apparently, the machine SID duplication problem was just a myth.

Configurable connection string with Linq to SQL
When using Linq-to-SQL with the dbml designer, by default it generates an App.config file and puts the connection string to use in it. This is fine (well, not really, but at least it works) for applications, but when working with class libraries it's a problem – DLL's don't load the app.config, so changing the connection string in the app.config won't produce any change (the application will still try to use the connection string that was used at design time).
I found a pretty neat solution here by David Klein ( http://ddkonline.blogspot.com/2008/02/set-connection-string-in-linq-dbml-file.html ), which is based on Jon Gallant's solution ( http://blogs.msdn.com/jongallant/archive/2007/11/25/linq-and-web-application-connection-strings.aspx )
P.S: The problem is known by MSFT: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb386996.aspx . It doesn't seems to bother them though…
