Unit testing using Visual Studio just got better!

Michele Leroux Bustamante has just posted a lot of links to resources to get you going on .NET 3.5. As her, I can recommend you get started with .NET 3.5 because it rocks! It makes life a lot easier. I'm really starting to miss all the enhancements every time I go all the way back to .NET 2.0 ;-...
I hope in the RTM you'll get more help solving your WCF Ajax problems then I currently get, because I'm getting mad from time to time. In my quest for getting things to work, I learned some stuff I wanted to share. Read: have a checklist for myself because I tend to forget this kind of stuff...

When you look at the...
During his 'Applied Linq' presentation at the Developer Days 2007, Alex Thisse n tried to zoom-in on some variable. I have no idea how this popup is called, but it's kind of a watch in a popup, therefor a 'watch popup' ? Anyhow, Alex tried to zoom-in on it as you can't (easily...
