C# to VB.NET Conversion

I recently came across two useful online utilities for converting C# source code to VB.Net source code:

• http://www.kamalpatel.net/ConvertCSharp2VB.aspx
• http://www.aspalliance.com/aldotnet/examples/translate.aspx

Each of them have their advantages and disadvantages. I recommend trying both of them to see which one will provide a better conversion for your codebase.

If anyone is looking for the perfect gift to get me this holiday season, I would really like a Panasonic 103-inch high-definition plasma TV. I'm not entirely sure it would actually fit in my living room; however, I'm willing to make some modifications to my house for this baby. :)

Google accidentally deletes blog...

According to News.com, Google accidentally deleted their own blog, which allowed another user to register the username:

Google has admitted that it accidentally deleted its own official blog on Monday night. "We've determined the cause of tonight's outage. The blog was mistakenly deleted by us (d'oh!) which allowed the blog address to be temporarily claimed by another user. This was not a hack, and nobody guessed our password. Our bad," Jason Goldman, Blogger Product Manager, wrote in a posting on the Google Blog. Apparently, the Google Blog was unavailable for a short time on Monday.

Really Simple Syndication (RSS)

According to Wikipedia, the RSS-DEV group created RSS 1.0 in December 2000. While the technology has been available for nearly six years and mainstream for at least two or three years, I have only recently started producing and consuming RSS feeds.

RSS feeds have several pros and cons. On the pro-side, RSS makes it very easy to aggregate content from multiple sources; however, on the con-side, the RSS aggregators often download RSS feeds that are never viewed by a human leading to large amounts of wasted bandwidth.
