This is a concoction of geeky posts, programming posts and just general stuff that is in my brain.

It might be updated often but then again it might not...

 

 

Could this be the start of something beautiful...?

Recently, I just passed the 10K mark on Stack Overflow. This gives you some additional privileges and well.... it's pretty cool! Agreed, I am miles away from being in the league of Jon Skeet or Marc Gravell but it's a little victory for me!

So, in my excitement I fired off a tweet of this geeky milestone.  I received a tweet back from Rory Becker, congratulating on me and pointing me in the direction of this page on the DevExpress site.

No need to refresh your page, it really does say that.

 DevExpress is proud to offer you a free license to  DXperience Enterprise subscription package

Now that is cool! Just because I have taken some time out to help other  developers they are helping me  out.

The timing of this is even better, as in the next month, I am due to start a new ASP.NET MVC3 project so these controls will come in very handy. I'm also looking forward to using CodeRush. After talking to Rory at DDD SouthWest at the weekend I was about to install the trial version to see how I got on - no need for that now :) I am assured by Rory that CodeRush rocks so I shouldn't have any troubles.

So, once installed and my new project is underway I shall write another post with my thoughts.

In the meantime, I just want to thank DevExpress for this amazing offer. They really don't have to do this but they do - so kudos to them.
