I think, now is good time to make small talk what F# is all about. Announce of the upcoming UNETA talk on subject.
Some subjective thoughts about potential storage dedicated for Event Sourcing.
Example Domain Events implementation with Reactive Extensions. Probably first example of the server side business logic with Rx.
Kind of yet another technique to organize business logic.
Cool stuff that comes with Reactive Framework API. Hope it really will be part of .NET 4.0
Yet another Unit Testing/BDD framework for F#. Inspired by RSpec syntax.
I love "guess error" kind of posts. This is first of mine. Snippet is all about GWT Java code.
First attempt to view on the Microsoft Master Data Services November 2009 CTP.
Small reviews of the PDC09 videos/sessions.

What do you think about ASP.NET MVC as a platform for web service based applications? What about JSON Web Services? Possibly you would like that.
We dropped out Application Layer. And nothing changed. This post is all about overuse of the Application Layer.
Despite my last belief, that code will not fly into production. Why? Because I found the right way to do INNER JOIN in Entity Framework!
We are building regular enterprise application. Domain is boring. The only interesting thing is technologies. Today is a good time to share how we do Data Access.
Personally, guidance to dispose everything looks a bit overwhelmed. I show BinaryWriter as one example of "broken" IDisposable implementations.
The story about progressive enhancements to a single LINQ to Entities query. Some stuff to know when doing LINQ.
Following post is about generating readable data for your staging database with DbPro. You will find list of expressions for the Regular Expression Generator.
My journey with ADO.NET Data Services. This should be interesting for anyone who starts with ADO.NET Data Services.
From time to time it happens, some code becomes outdated. And I have some of such code. This post is all about such code/projects.
Compare how to read all lines of the text file with Ruby, Java and C#.
Introduction to the T4 (Text Templates), nothing interesting if you already have used T4.
Discussion about Java "virtual by default" behavior compared to C#.
What is Dependency Injection (DI), Dependency Inversion (also DI), Inversion of Control (IoC) and so on.

I stole a book in 5 minutes. Today's realities.
I do not love Domain Services. And this post describes why!
To be honest, main intent of this entry is not to welcome you… This would be plain boring… Isn't it? Rather it for the testing purposes. Plus I am not sure that my blog can handle empty pages.
