For those that grew up in a cave (or Europe like me) and don’t know who Adam Curry is – he was the VJ on MTV in the 80′s with big hair. Apparently he [...]
There are some great free tools over at http://www.sysinternals.com/. Get them now before someone like Computer Associates buys the company and starts charging for them. Personally, one tool in particular called ‘FileMon’ helped solve a tricky file locking problem on a recent project. FileMon showed the massive amount of files opened/closed by our software. A [...]
Probably everyone already does this, but if not it is incredibly easy to create a DTS package that will do a nightly backup of your blog. The only semi-tricky part is realizing you have to start the Windows Service SQLSERVERAGENT. My Domain server is on 24×7 and it is comforting to know every evening it [...]

Macintosh users are a unique breed, I truly admire their devotion. Most of my Mac friends freely admit to being addicted, spending huge sums of cash on Macs with little justification other than their devotion for the brand.
