    It's A Boy

    We just found out today that we will be having a baby boy come May 2006.  Got to see ultra sound pics and all.
     
    Woot!

    Plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery

    Whether or not this is the case, the recent Cover Story article in .Net Developers Journal entitled Google Maps and ASP.NET is startlingly similar to my articles on the same subject released in September 2005.
     
    I had a chance to review the code written by Jeevan Murkoth and while there are differences in approach, namely my use of XML/XSL, there are a large number of similarities.  Too many similarities for my taste :)  But, I would be a cocky prick if I thought I was the only one who could come up with such a good idea.  At a minimum, a nod to my article would have been appreciated.
     
    So, you be the judge.  If you have any thoughts on the subject post a comment here or at the article.

    .Net Xml Doc and Generics

    Was trying to enter some XML Doc information into my current C# project and came a across a small snag.  Trying to add a cref to a generic type.  I had some difficulty finding anything with a quick Google search (quick being 10 seconds or less).  Eventually I stumbled on it and wanted to share.

    <see cref="System.Collections.Generic.List{T}" />

    Note the braces around the type parameter.
