[...] and now they even pay you big prizes (!), just to give a successful example of using .Net (see here) – not quite encouraging for a “successful” platform, isn’t? And even if [...]

Anyway, I did try the DemoMate trial and liked the capture and click annotation process.

However, I didn’t get the month-to-month ’service’ aspect of this product to justify the subscription pricing.

Camtasia’s model has a really nice balance of pay one-time to own the capture/edit software and pay annually for the convenience of one-click video publishing and embedding on their servers.

Not sure who these campaigns are targeting anymore. Is there a level below ‘Mort’?

No wonder “.NET Developer” is becoming a liability in development shops.

@Barnaby – you can use whatever framework you want…whatever works best for you. Our hope is that we can show you what amazing things you can create with .NET, and how you can use the same skillset, and even code to deploy your app to multiple platforms – Windows Client, web app, mobile, or RIA.

First and foremost, developers should be comfortable. That's the best way to get to good code. Sometimes I like to try out new things to see if I have grown too comfortable with things. Am I happy that Visual Studio doesn't really support Python? No. Do I like Eclipse as my IDE for python? With PyDev it works OK. I have come to love TextMate for it's simplicity and hate it for the same thing. Amazing how attached you can become to intellisense on code.

If you want to run PHP, you can do it on Windows. If you want to run Django or Ruby, same thing. If you want to run on Linux, you can do .NET development on Mono. There's no shortage of options. Let me know how we can help you.

The Galapagos Islands are the most incredible living museum of evolutionary changes, with a huge variety of exotic species (birds, land animals, plants) and landscapes not seen anywhere else.

If your language or framework doesn't matter, then why would we want to try .NET? I mean, we can still do cool stuff with other frameworks that we find easier to use and like better.

People can hate and I won't moderate comments…that's their right. However, I wish we could all get back to basics and realize that your language or framework doesn't define you. The fact that you are a builder, a maker, a creator or a coder. We all want to build cool shit. Rock on guys.
