Dinner and Technical Support
We visited some friends for a lovely roast dinner yesterday and whilst we were there I did some technical support. Since upgrading to IE7 Microsoft Live Messenger had stopped signing in saying there was a temporary service problem and displaying error code 80040111. We tried logging on via meebo.com and that worked well. After a bit of googling I discovered a two point plan. Firstly, re-register msxml.dll. This resulted in a different error code - this indicated progress. I googled for that code (can't remember what it was) and found a suggestion to remove Live Messenger, reinstall Live Messenger and reboot. I did all that, and it all worked. A fair exchange for a yummy dinner.

Google Co-op
One of the Brighton Bloggers, Paul Silver, did some ground work on Google Co-op for me. He created us a Brighton Bloggers search, and added a load of sites to it and added me as a contributor. Unfortunately as a contributor I could only add sites, I couldn't see what had already been added, neither could I configure the look and feel. But, Paul assured me it was straightforward so today I gave it a go, and can now unveil the Brighton Bloggers Search page. I've added the 248 sites which we currently have registered on the site, and have added it to my list of things to do when adding new blogs to the list.
For some reason the markup returned from Google includes a vast amount of white space after the searches, and I haven't yet worked out why, despite rummaging through the documentation.

MS2543 - Core Web Application Technologies Course - Days 2 & 3 / MS2544 - Advanced Web Application Technologies - Days 1 & 2
It was quite a packed week, with lots of hints and tips gained as well as an insight into the way we can progress our web products to make the most of the .Net framework. We even had some spare time to take a look at ASP.NET Ajax which looks really handy.
Some of the most pertinent things to have come out of the course are things like session state management, specially with regards to the server farm environment - something we've had a problem with for a while.
The best thing for have come out of the course though was probably the opportunity to experiement, to try some things out and to work out how to integrate our learnings into our projects.
