At the last PDC, nothing new ASP.NET was announced except a few tweaks for AJAX and the fact that Microsoft released the MVC ...

However, there are some reasons to stay away from it - at ...

By now, you’ve probably read about the demise of Journalspace. For those that haven’t an entire blogging service with an Alexa page rank of 106,881 has been wiped out (allegedly) by a disgruntled, malicious employee. It turns out that their content was stored in a single database on a RAID1 array and wasn’t backed up. It gave me the nudge I needed to perform a recovery from tape test and I’m happy to say it ...

I've been using Stanza for months now, and have probably read over a dozen full length novels on it. Definitely the best ebook option for the iPhone currently available. I'm hoping to see a little more refinement & polish in future versions, but as a free app it can't be beat.
