  • Visual Thesaurus – Mindware

  • Camtasia Crash Tip Update

    Back on July 3 I posted a Camtasia Crash Tip for those of you who use this terrific product for screen captures.

  • Creating a Project from xaml and xaml.cs files

    I posted the code for the PageSwitcher app described in a previous blog post , but to save space and to make the download faster, I didn't include anything but the code (no solution or project files).
