Amazon has a contest for .NET programmers to use VS.NET 2005. Create something using their web services.

Back in 2003 I wrote a program called Huber Weather.I created it to work with .NET and XML more and used the weather.com feed to get the weather.

I should have been prepared for my Dlink I-624 router to die after reading several postings on the web about it. Just keeps disconnecting and connecting and is rather annoying. Finally this morning I woke up and couldnt connect.
I called COX and they walked me through the troubleshooting steps I already had taken but [...]
I have been asked many times about cheap web hosting. I host using hostonce.com, and they are pretty good. They dont backup anything however and this got me last year when I lost my entire site. It was actually a blessing – the site stunk and opened family photos up to the world. It was [...]
I had an idea based on my previous post. It might not be much but check out www.huberblogs.com. That is Huberblogs with an ’s’ remember..
Just a copy of the google home page. If you use good this will work just fine for your searches. I think I might change it to default to web. I [...]
Today in class we talked about how we will actually use this stuff. I suggested that we look at godaddy.com and check out the costs of registering a site and hosting it as well.
We came up with an initial month cost of $25. That is cheap registration fees and cheap hosting. What were we going [...]

Some say as a checklist. Others as the guiding light. I like network [...]
