Workgroup Diary Application...cool!!!

I have been working on a cool app just recently. Basically it reads information from Outlook, calls a webservice on our server and dumps the data in to the SQL Server back end. Then there is a calendar application which then displays the details in a neat fasion. It is the first real experiment I have done with web services and to be honest I am very pleased with it. I am still at the testing phase, but will hopefully post some code here soon. The calendar web application uses a cool control developed by Mike Ellison and can be found over at Code Project.

Still working on my DotNetDiary site, and to be honest, I am finding it difficult to find the time to do it. I am going to look in to those Microsoft starter kits to see if they are any help. I will report back any findings.

One of the projects I will be working on soon is a Virtual Learning Environment which runs on asp.net. I am not intending to build one from scratch, but perhaps implement a third party tool. Hmmm!

I am also working arround a problem I have with the CMS for my site at work. It uses a cool component called EasyWebEdit. However as I am now using Firefox as my browser, it doesn't render correctly. I cannot use IE as for some reason no matter what I do I cannot get it to access the Internet. Anyway to cut a long story short, I will be looking in to word processor type web editors and compare them to a bespoke version.

I am off on my Jollies next week, so I will not be blogging for a while. Not that I regularly do anyway.
