Scott on Writing

Musings on technical writing...

.NET Toolbox Updated

My fiancee and I have been working on and off on the .NET Toolbox back-end.  My fiancee added support for listing all reviewers, and a Web interface for the 10 most recent reviews.  (There is also an RSS feed for the most recent reviews.)  Also, per Nauman Leghari's suggestion I have extended each review to not only include comments and screenshots, but also recommended articles.  Also, with my fiancee's help, we have finished cleaning up my initially ugly code; .NET Toolbox now uses a solid object model and DAL with which user controls and ASP.NET Web pages interact with.

While the back-end material is coming along nicely, I've yet to have an opportunity to write more reviews.  Bummer, because that's what will attract and keep people.  So... I am imploring you to write a review of a free .NET tool, one that you find indespensible.

Right now, I've been trying to keep .NET Toolbox pretty low key - I've only talked about it here on my blog and have not mentioned it on 4Guys or asked other ASP.NET Web sites to link to it/pimp it.  If nothing else, examining the stats for .NET Toolbox gives me a good indication of how many (or, perhaps, few) people read my blog!  :-)  Over the past three days, www.dotnettoolbox.com has received a total of 171 unique visitors, averaging about 125 visites per day, and 475 page views per day.  Total bandwidth consumed: 6.93 MB.  (These numbers are higher than I initially assumed - more than 100 people reading my blog!  How eerie.  :-) )  It will be interesting to compare these statistics to the stats after I “get the word out” about the site.

I was one of those who popped by! So some of those MB are mine. Muhahaha

On a serious note, keep up the great work. Will keep an eye on it and how it's developing
