The Daily Grind 661

I seem to have finally eradicated the poison ivy on our property. Hooray!

Software

• Dynamic Runtime Property Viewer - Hook up the PropertyGrid to let you change control properties at runtime in a .NET project.
• Zanebug v1.5 Released! - One of the nice .NET unit-testing tools is moving right along.
• Codus v1.1 Released! - This code-generation tool now includes Oracle support.
• Qt/Windows Overview - Interesting. The latest version of Trolltech's QT cross-platform framework is now integrated with Visual Studio .NET. (via TheServerSide.NET)

Hardware

• If the wine talks to you, maybe it's time to stop - Someone has gone and patented a talking wine bottle label. Hackers are going to have more fun with this than they did with that talking Billy Bass.

Information

• Data Source Controls (Part 2 - Parameters) - Nikhil Kothari continues exploring ASP.NET 2.0.
• Why subscription software? - Greg Reinacker explains the NewsGator pricing model, and why they think subscription pricing is a bargain for most users.
• RSS Support in Longhorn - Overview of Microsoft's current plans. Given the way that Windows pre-release plans go, I'd take this with a big lump of salt.
