Tap My Mind - Scott Isaacs

Tap into the mind of Scott Isaacs -- you never know what will drip out.

What the F#?!?

Now that I have your attention, I should clarify in case my mother happens upon this and makes me wash out my mouth with SOAP. Wink <img src=" />  (Sorry.  For some reason I can't seem to resist the silly geek puns...)

In case you aren't aware, F# is a new .NET language from Microsoft Research, and a new community site just launched last night in support of that.  "The Hub" (or more completely, "hubFS: THE Place for F#") is a site that I've been privileged to be involved with for a few weeks of BETA now.  I have to confess that I'm not fully up to speed on F#, so that makes this site even that much more valuable to someone like myself.

It is my understanding that Dr. Syme, the architect and designer of F# at Microsoft Research, is the champion of generics in Microsoft's .NET Framework v2.0.  This stuff must be good.

Check it out.

I am too lazy to go into the other site, while I am reading your older posts. Do you know why it was called F ... # and not D# or E# or perhaps V# .. :-)
