Im very happy to have been reawarded my MVP status again, makes all teh late nights worthwhile.  I also just hit 1000 posts on DotNetNuke.  I have tried to make sure i only post meaningful content and not just ramble or "ditto" peoples posts.

Set up my workstation again with all my toys connected together. Now I can work, play records, mix dance tracks and mix in Ableton Live for all my digital mixing as well.

Check it out.

DotNetNuke now has the DNN Forge where anyone can setup a CodePlex project.  The CodePlex team released this blog post http://blogs.msdn.com/codeplex/archive/2008/02/12/codeplex-dotnetnuke-partnership-in-dotnetnuke-forge.aspx about it and you can see all the projects here http://www.dotnetnuke.com/tabid/824/default.aspx

Sometimes when diagnosing whats wrong with people's DotnetNuke sites I need to be able to see the actual text of a sproc.  On a shared hosting setup you dont get direct db access so this piece of T-SQL does the trick

I just ran the Microsoft SDC Tech Talk session and did my DNN OpenForce session again.  You can check it out here as a Livemeeting recording.
