Mix08 is in the books, and crowds are headed out for Vegas adventures.
Scott Gu started it off and dressed up for the keynote as usual.
There were a number of cool demos, hard to believe that AOL could breathe life into email, but with Silverlight2, well, they did!
But the best for me continues to be the Hard Rock's wall of memorabilia.
Time to go download and check out the new WPF and Silverlight bits :)

A simple Virtual Earth module has been posted on the downloads section.
It basically shows how to wire up a special javasscript onload event that you put in your module ascx file.
The simple steps to start are:
1) Create a Module and put javascript in to reference Microsofts VE library
2) create a div that will will hold the Virtual Earth Map
3) Add the Javascript onload Function that will create and dsiplay your map
var map = null;var lat = 41.500548;var lon = -72.206397;var zoom = 12;function myOnPageLoad()new VEMap('myMap');new VELatLong(lat, lon), zoom, "r", false);
4) on your modules onload event wireup your onload event from the ascx file
DotNetNuke.UI.Utilities.
DNNClientAPI.AddBodyOnloadEventHandler(Page, "myOnPageLoad();");

It has been dormant to long, walkspoiled with no Golf Information!!!
I have a bunch of data and all of the algorithms for building a golf Leauge DNN module.
I had one back in the DNN 3 days, but it was never cleanly packaged.
Please drop me a comment if you are interested in a Golf leauge Module for use or for helping with the development.
We would use subsonic as the DAL.

I got this from one of the chain mail gang..OK Bill, I am sharing it
A scene you will probably never get to see, so take a moment and
enjoy.This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest
point.And, you also see the sun below the moon.
An amazing photo and not one easily duplicated. You may want to pass
it on to others.The Chinese have a saying that goes something like this:
"When someone shares with you something of value, you have an
obligation to share it with others!"

I just got an email from Sunil who I met at MIX07. He thought that he recongized me from the Scott Gu, MVC presentation at ALT.NET in Austin.
Well yes that was me sitting up with the Gu. It was a packed session at ALT.NET and the crowd was very pleased with what they saw. I was quite surprised as Scott Hanselman held a small camera for most of the presentation.
It amazes how much I was able to get involved in this past year:
- MIX07
- A number of Code Camps and User Group Presentations. NYC, Boston, Philly, Westchester
- JP's Training Class - Nothing But DotNet Training class
- Meeting Rob Conery in Kauaui
- DEVconnections and presenting at OpenForce
- Completing a 1 YR consulting Project and leaving with highly satisfied users
- Starting a new project with the goal of introducing, CI, TDD, DDD, and..MVC!

It is one week into a new assignment and things are starting to get interesting! I have been able to port a good portion of the web application to a DNN system and I am starting on the meaty part of the application.

Today marks my last commute crossing the hudson river via the tappan zee bridge.
The assignment to build an internal reporting application for a major vwireless carrier has been a great success, this is of course according to the manager and users of the new system! To me there is more refactoring and additional features to be added. There was plenty more tinkering to be done...
I leave the application in the trusty hands of Bharti, who was a bright spot of the project the past few months since she joined the team. It has been great to have someone to challenge my design and approach for building solutions. It was the closest to pair programming that I have come and I liked it.
The manager of the team created a supportive environment and he made every effort to give me the tools to create a successful project. Thanks Gus! I know Nick and Karin will keep those employee recognition lunches going. I will miss the people and great atmosphere.

We are half way through the DevConnections and OpenForce Conference. Rob and I just finished our presentation on using SubSonic and DotnNetNuke. The audience had some good questions and people certainly are interested in other Data Access Layers for DotNetNuke
