I was hoping to post during the week from Las Vegas, but it didn't end up happening. My time just bled away between the various classes I recorded/ presented/co-paneled and the time spent catching up with old friends and making new ones – mainly from among the various people who took the chance to provide […]

It was a bit of a schlep, but I got here. My flight out of Geneva was delayed due to inclement weather: the first (actually quite mild) snowstorm of the season. The runway was closed for some time and there was a 1+-hour backlog on de-icing, so I sat helplessly watching my connection time in […]

I've now checked in for my flight to Las Vegas – and, thanks to Jeremy Tammik's recent troubles, I luckily renewed my ESTA – so I'm pretty much all set for my trip to AU 2010, at least from a travel perspective. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that the gastric 'flu my kids seem […]

I'm heads-down in final preparation mode for AU 2010 and so won't post anything very detailed for the rest of the week, but I did just want to share a series of programming gems that I stumbled across the other day. James Michael Hare has published a great series entitled "C#/.NET Little Wonders": C#/.NET Five […]

This handout is for the companion class to the one whose handout formed my last post. While that class was user-focused, this one, "CP322-2 - Integrate F# into Your C# or VB.NET Application for an 8x Performance Boost", is more developer-focused and takes the hood off the implementation of the BrowsePhotosynth application. The code for […]

I've been a little slow getting my AU material together, this year (I've been called onto more pressing issues fairly consistently over the last weeks/months), so I'm very much up against Monday's content submission deadline. I'll certainly have the handouts ready, but the presentations will have to come later. As I've done in the past, […]

Many of you will have seen previous incarnations of this tool, during its development. It's a little more complex than most of our other monthly plugins – mostly as it depends on a couple of external components – but the functionality should hopefully be simple enough to understand and use. I won't go into great […]

The first 5 people to email me with the topic of the virtual session I'm presenting at this year's AUv event will receive a free Premier Pass for AU Virtual 2010 worth $139. To even the playing field somewhat and to emphasize the global nature of the AUv event, each winner will have to come […]

As part of my preparation for a class I'm presenting at AU, Point Clouds on a Shoestring (AC427-4), I bought myself a new toy a couple of weeks ago: an Eye-Fi Pro X2 memory card. This very cool little device is much more than a high capacity SD card: it has an in-built Wi-Fi chip […]

The class catalogs for AU 2010 – for both the physical and virtual classes – have now been posted to the AU website: I have a few AU classes scheduled – thanks to any of you who took the time to vote for them. My first class is virtual… Getting to Know the AutoCAD® Plugins […]
