and Universidade Nova de Lisboa in Portugal have created a paper transistor !
At my work we are working with a lot of network management related material. In light of this, I stumbled across DirectoryEntries and thus making a really simple way to list all the computers on the network (underneath all the available domains on the network).
- Add a reference to System.DirectoryServices
- Insert the using statement: using System.DirectoryServices;
- Insert the using statement: using System.Net;
- Put in the rest of the following code and you're good to go.
You guys took too long so I went ahead and got the Violin myself. I'm still curious what it would take to get something out of this community though. How about this, a project of some sort: using whatever technologies you want be it JavaScript, Silverlight, WPF or just plain ol' web programming. We don't necessarily have to have an exchange of money persay, but it would be nice to create something together. We can take a vote or something...Here's another picture for clarity.
Note: Be creative, if that makes any sense.
I'll update as soon as my Violin comes in. I'm pysched.
Gimme a V! Gimme an O! Gimme an X! What's that spell? VOX!
What better way to tell the world how much you love Vox than to announce it on Facebook? That's right: Vox now has an official Facebook page! Become a fan of Vox.com on Facebook and let your friends know what you really care about: staying connected with friends and family through blog posts, photos, videos and comments.
Once you're a fan, you can also add photos and videos to the page, write on the wall, and connect with other Voxers in ways you may not have previously. Plus, it's a great opportunity to let people know about your Vox blog, or start discussion topics. To become a fan, just visit the official Vox.com Facebook page and click the "Become a Fan" button in the upper right hand corner.
Once you've joined, why not post a response to the current discussion topic? Just post a link (and a brief description, if you'd like) to what you consider one of your all-time best Vox posts.
What are you waiting for? Become a Vox.com fan on Facebook today!
UPDATE: I got it anyways, you guys were too slow :P
In light of my running out of cash, I no longer have the needed resources to purchase anything more than $GAS$. :( So, here is my proposal. I will trade you (or rather create for you), the community or someone out there, one website or application of your taking in exchange for enough money to purchase 1 Violin. Here's a picture for clarity.
Hey look, an Amazon Wishlist button...
Well, I launched Curbside Design, made a milllion bucks and now I'm on my next adventure (what? it can happen). Here's another sweet creative consulting company I'm working on. This one is called Cre8tive Software. I thought to put in some neat fractal effects into the background.
I even made a business card, check it out.
So far so good, if I can just work up to creating something that brings in the doeh - then I'll be set :D
Although we typically post on Team Vox to let you know about things that are going on with Vox (to, uh, state the obvious), once in a while, we like to let you know about other cool things that are happening around the blogosphere. And we think the idea of four hilarious mommy bloggers traveling across the U.S. on their way to the BlogHer '08 conference - all the while blogging and video blogging the journey - is one trip you will not want to miss.
Four adventurous bloggers from the Silicon Valley Moms Group were selected to participate in the Summer Road Trip '08 and blog about their travels, hotel stays, media appearances, time away from their families, and life on the road. Six Apart helped them partner up with General Motors, who provided the blogging mommies with a Chevy Tahoe Hybrid SUV to help make their journey comfy, safe, and a little more green.
In case you're not familiar with them, SV Moms is a group of over 200 bloggers who showcase the ups, downs, outrages, struggles, victories, and everyday humor of motherhood. There are currently nine regional and demographically tailored sites that give mothers from D.C., New Jersey, the Deep South, Rocky Mountains, L.A., and Silicon Valley a powerful voice and sense of camaraderie across the country. Whether you're a mother, a child, or just a person who enjoys a good blog, you'll really love reading the words of these amazing women.
The moms buckled into their Chevy Tahoe Hybrid SUV on July 11th and even got an encouraging message from Katie Couric to kick things off! They are currently somewhere in the middle of America making their way to San Francisco where they'll attend an SV Moms Group Party, as well as BlogHer '08.
You do not want to miss these entertaining and irreverent bloggers -- or their spontaneous contest giveaways! -- as they blog from the road. Experience the journey at MomRoadTrip.com.
And let us know about your summer road trip - or plane/boat/bus trip - in the comments! (I like to live vicariously.)
Indeed, the news travels fast. I made another website recently (though I haven't actually registered anything or committed to ensuring its success), nevertheless I did make one. Gotta get critiqued somehow, here's the mockup:
What do you think? Oh, and I also made alternative banners which are chosen randomly on load. Here's one,
and here's another,
and another, 
and one more for good measure.
Just a few more, I promise :)
UPDATE: Here's the other ones I forgot to add :P
Hello everyone, I'm back. I missed vox, did you miss me? Here's some things that you might of missed:
Prototyping through Mockups
A way to create really awesome and even usable prototypes using Microsoft Expression Blend.
Post Galaxy, your first callbacks
A simple, effective implementation of a chat client using WCF callbacks. Here's what you can expect:
Post Galaxy in Silverlight
A really detailed look at creating a web chat solution in Silverlight (with WCF Callbacks, JQuery and JSON).
There are more, but I felt that these best suited the audience. Enjoy :D
