So if you get a chance this afternoon have look, it is well worth your time if you work in the ASP....
Doron at Typemock has posted a nice description of how they use Kanban for managing support. A good introduction for those unfamiliar with lean
Thanks to everyone who attended my two Nxtgen session on Sharepoint and Typemock in Birmingham and Manchester. You can find copies of the slide on the Black Marble site. There was a good deal of chat in how Typemock could be used for more general ASP.NET testing; if this is of interest to you I would strongly recommended Typemock’s next webinar on the 25th of August on Unit testing ASP.NET with Isolator and Ivonna
Cool, I just noticed that on Windows 7 Media Center with a Hauppauge Nova 500 T Tuner card the red button works; so at last I can get Digital Teletext and interactive channels on the BBC without having to know their actual channel numbers (and as I remember they were actually ignored by previous versions of Media Center without a registry hack anyway).

Over the past couple of days I have upgraded my Vista based Media Center to Windows 7. After my previous experiences upgrading from XP here, here and here I decided to do a new install onto a new 1Tb disk as opposed to an in place upgrade. This all went OK, there was nothing major to note, Windows 7 shipped with a driver for everything in my 3 year old AMD/ASUS based PC bar the sound card built into my motherboard, but that was easily downloaded....
Thanks to everyone who attended my VBUG session yesterday on ‘Enabling agile development with Visual Studio Team System 2010’. I have just posted the slides on Black Marble’s web site
It is good to see that at last Expression Web and Blend have got source control integrated into their IDEs. This is a vital feature if developers and designers are to work together effectively on the same code. It is a shame that the integration is just for TFS, it would be nice to support other source repositories to get an even wider reach, but TFS is enough for me now....
I love the new paste preview selection in Word 2010 This really is cutting down the number of paste, undo, paste special, damn undo again that failed so paste into paint or notepad, reselect and copy try again sequences I am going through.
