Testing PreCode

I'm using this post to test PreCode -- a code snippet formatting plugin for Windows Live Writer. It uses SyntaxHighlighter on the client side and this plugin just sends the needed code to my blog engine. As a test I thought I'd just add a couple short snippets, using some of the different...

TimeSnapper

I've been using the free version of TimeSnapper off and on for some time now, but pretty regularly over the last few weeks since I started my new job. I'm doing billable work again, and am notoriously bad at getting my time entered. TimeSnapper helps by taking screenshots at some...

VS2008 DVDs From InstallFest

If you attended a VS2008 InstallFest in the last couple months and registered your trial copy of VS2008, you have probably received the final media in the mail in the last day or two (or probably will in the next day or two). Someone sent me a note today asking about activated the installed trial...

New Tool: Folder Finder

I'm on a roll here with the little utilities... My dad called the other day as he was leaving his office (in California). Due to the nature of his business and the way their network is setup, he and his team work with a large number of folders on a network share. Each of these folders contains information...

New Tool: App Dashboard

Many times I find myself with way too many files, folders and shortcuts on the desktop for things that I am currently working on and/or testing. That's in addition, of course, to the things I have on the desktop because I use them all the time. Because of the way I've grown to work over the last...

Database Publishing Wizard

I don't think I've written about this tool yet, but it's one of my favorites. Microsoft has release (on Codeplex ) a SQL Server Hosting Toolkit (it's free). The entire toolkit is, I'm sure, full of goodness, but there is one part in particular that I really get a lot of use out of...

I Really Like Windows Live Writer

I downloaded the latest beta of Windows Live Writer* a couple days ago and have finally gotten around to making a post with it. I didn't have any real issues with the previous version, although there were a couple things I would have liked changed. Applying tags (categories) to a post is not any...

New Version of Cropper Released

Brian Scott released a new version of Cropper a couple days ago. I missed the announcement due to RSS reader issues, but I was fortunate enough to get to poke around with it in advance for a couple days. It's been about a year since the last release, and I was beginning to wonder if version 1.8 was...

Update #2: More IE Stuff

Early this year I posted a ZIP of stuff for IE context menus. I just wrote and added another menu item for checking or unchecking any checkboxes in the current text selection. The file is attached to this post. Download and use at your own risk. See readme.txt for summary and instructions. These will...

Update: Image Converter

A couple weeks ago, I posted a " slightly useful piece of software " which could be used to convert a bunch of BMP files to JPG. We'll I just updated it to allow you to select the source and destination file types. I've replaced the old download with the modified one, and you can get...
