Last time I had post the all.build script for our buildserver. Those scripts has some includes to other scritps, which weren't included at that moment. Finally I have found some time to post the next chapter in which these scripts will be included. We will now show you the following scripts : Properties.build Buildscripts.refresh.build Clean.build Webapplication.install.build ccnet.config using all.build

After experimenting a while with Joost, it's time for a post about Microsoft and .Net.  Although it's more of a summary with a few links/tools I collected the last weeks .

The IE Developer toolbar.

I think every web developer knows this already from somewhere in (If I’m correct) 2005.  But it was still in beta.  Finally MS half of May has released the first final version.  You can download the toolbar here.
A fine overview is also available on this page

Interesting MSDN event in Belgium for web developers

On 6th of June: AJAX.  Info and registration can be found here.

Powershell

On the DEV & IT Pro days this year I had bought a book about Powershell.  Meanwhile I also found a digital copy of a powershell book.  You can download it here.

The book gives you a short but good starting overview about powershell.

As I stated in this article, I have troubles with synchronizing my IPaq with Outlook.

Now with my new GSM, I still had the trouble.  But after repairing Office 2007, the problem was solved with my new GSM. 

And strangely also with my IPaq.  Although I did already repair Office, even uninstall and install Ofiice 2007 again.  Before the problem still exists. (BTW : txs to Seb also for his sharing his solutions with me).

So I'm happy now and can sync again my calenders (which where a big mess the last weeks).

 

Today I have bought myself a new GSM.  After having A Sony Ericsson T610 and a HP IPAQ 2210, I went for a full PDA Phone.  I struggling between the Glofiish M700 and the HTC P4350.

After looking to some reviews and what the salesman of the PDAShop told me, I have bought the HTC P4350.  The most differance between the two phones is the GPS.  But as I already have GPS this feature isn't not some meaningfull (and it cost almost 150 Euro more without the software).

Read more about the HTC P4350 here.

(Txs to JoostTeam)

BTW : If you want an invitation.  I still have invitations left.  So go to this article and leave a comment with your information.

Txs to Dan Brickley I have thius info about some issues I mentioned in my review.

1. About the invitation that was lost.  Find here an article with a solution : http://www.joostteam.com/2007/05/12/how-to-get-joost-working-when-your-invite-went-in-the-spam-bucket/.  But as Dan told me, Always download the latest version of Joost directly on the Joost site and not from another site where it is possible that you download an old version.
2. About using multiple accounts : Dan hopes Joost will solve this in the future, so you can easily switch between accounts.
3. About the resending of an invitation : The people of Joost will look at it.

I'm very pleased that they reading blogs and reviews on the web, and take care of what people are saying. 

I'm playing more and more with Joost.  So if I found something interresting, I will let you know.

A good site with info arround Joost and a forum is JoostTeam.

(Article updated on 16/05/2007).

After using Joost for about 14 days. It’s time to write down a bit about my experience. They still have troubles with the heavy load. Sometimes we got connection problems. Also the rating doesn’t work every time. The content is still not much. OK, you have a lot of music clips, documentary’s, etc. But no real life streaming of programs. All of them are short clips (some more than 30 minutes). The quality is good but not very good. In full screen you still see that they use a lower resolution.
