• I might be an elitist, but you're a misanthrope

  I've been in Seattle the past week, first at the MVP Summit and now at the ALT.NET event. It's been good to rub shoulders with folks from outside our little ALT.NET cocoon to hear other points of view, but there's a particularly common refrain... Posted Apr 20 2008, 11:21 AM by Jeremy D.

• ALT.Net on MSDN Magazine

  There is a short article I wrote called What is ALT.NET on the back page of the March edition of MSDN Magazine. Nothing you haven't seen before if you're a regular reader here, but it was nice to see something in the mainstream. I'd say "my... Posted Mar 14 2008, 03:39 PM by Jeremy D.

• Alt.Net.UK has been announced

  Check it out here on Ben Hall's blog . I won't be able to go, but I'm looking forward to reading the recaps from the other side of the Atlantic. The official website is http://www.altnetuk.com/ Posted Dec 07 2007, 07:21 AM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 5 comment(s) Filed under: altnetconf

• My Official ALT.NET Recap

  It took a week, but I finally got around to finishing my recap of the ALT.NET Open Spaces event from last weekend. I can honestly say that this was the best experience that I've ever had at a technical conference. I'll mostly pass on name dropping... Posted Oct 14 2007, 08:40 PM by Jeremy D.

• ALT.NET isn't completely baked and there's nothing new here...

  ...and I'm fine with that. I want the ALT.NET mission statement and credo to remain up for debate for a while longer. I wanted to try to respond to Frans Bouma's comments on ALT.NET , but I don't have all of the answers to his questions yet... Posted Oct 11 2007, 10:03 PM by Jeremy D.

• ALT.NET Recap: It's the Values, Stupid!

  Scott Hanselman got off a good one liner early on the first day. To paraphrase: "...is this just the 'I hate the ViewState' so let's have a conference crowd?" He went on farther to challenge us to have a real meaning and purpose... Posted Oct 11 2007, 09:59 PM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 8 comment(s) Filed under: altnetconf

• ALT.NET Recap: Not Invented Here - Um, are you kidding me?

  EDIT: Softened the language a bit. Scott Hanselman made what I thought was, even in jest, a statement that didn't quite feel right to me. Mr. Hanselman, a newly minted employee of the company that brought us MSBuild and MSTest but forgot to clone... Posted Oct 11 2007, 09:42 PM by Jeremy D.

• ALT.NET Recap: My name is Jeremy, and I'm a .Net developer

  Just to prove that the ALT.NET conference was 99% positive, I was definitely on an endorphin high when I wrote this. There was a day and time when I was intimidated by C++, then Java developers. I thought they were a notch above us lowly VB6 guys. They... Posted Oct 11 2007, 09:23 PM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 11 comment(s) Filed under: altnetconf

• ALT.NET Recap: Front and center, let's talk constructively about Mort

  There's much, much more to follow from this past weekend. This just happened to be the section I managed to get done first. Please don't get the impression that all we did is sit around and bash Mort, because that's very far from the truth... Posted Oct 10 2007, 09:39 AM by Jeremy D.
