Back to blogging .. for a while anyway

I just realized it's been months since I last posted anything on this blog. So, here are the news :

  • I am now a MCAD.NET, working on my MCSD.NET certification
  • My work right now is on a ASP.NET v2.0 project which is about as cool as I could hope for
  • I am getting married in 2 weeks which is obviously way cooler than all of the above :)

As an aside, I'm working on a little application that will monitor CounterStrike:Source. When a user is playing online it will publish the server IP and port so that fellow gamers can come and join the fun. I have a working prototype that publishes the information to the Friendly Name in Windows Messenger 4.7 (In the more recent versions the friendly name in the COM APIs has been made read-only which makes the whole publishing stuff a pain). I plan to support publishing to a FTP site, mIRC, MSN (if I find a way to do so), maybe other IM software. I'll build a simple plugin architecture to extend it if needed. I may even design it to support other games / apps.
