jQuery now official in VS 2008

Today Microsoft announced that they have partnered with the jQuery team and from now on it will be fully supported in the VS 2008 SP1, which is a great new by the way. We've been using jQuery in all our projects extensively and are looking forward to the built in intellisense-annotated version of jQuery as ScottGu announces

"Stackoverflow.com" launched

Go check it out

Jeff Atwood and Joel Spolsky have been working on StackOverflow.com for a while and now it's finally a public beta, here's an excerpt from the site.

Stack Overflow is a collaboratively edited question and answer site for programmers — regardless of platform or language. Jump in and share your software engineering expertise! No registration or account required.

So far I had a wonderful experience using the site and it turns out to be a easily navigable, one-stop-shop for answering all programming questions.

dotTrace not working with VS 2008 Web Applications

This morning I downloaded the latest build of dotTrace to profile my web application running under ASP.NET Development Server. I had a bit of problem specifying the correct web application path and I was getting this message.

dotTraceDialog 

I Google'd it a bit and found two guys having the same issue and offered suggestion that sadly didn't work.

It's was time to use IIS, since all my local web applications connect to a remote database server and I use the built-in web server for development, the web application gave a annoying 'Cannot connect to remote SQL Server' bug when run in IIS, I installed dotTrace on the remote server but it always showed 'Connecting' status, without further delay I copied the database to my local SQL Server and ran dotTrace again.

I got the same status, I google'd again and found this thread at the dotTrace forums and did all the settings suggested in the thread, but they didn't work either.

After 2-1/2 hours of trying I finally gave up and now looking to download ANTS Profiler.Hope it works.
