New Web Application: Anagram FinderI haven't blogged here in a bit, mainly because I have moved on to my own, custom website. It has much the same material on it, but with 10+ new articles already. I haven't given up by any means and I am dedicated to this cause. Mainly I am posting here because I have made a new program called Anagram Finder, that allows you to cheat at your favorite word game (Scrabulous, Scrabble, Boggle, Yahoo word games). It finds all anagrams in a word that are the same length as the word. My program is special because it has a decent GUI, no ads, and is very fast. The server is using an optimized database with indexes, etc. It all works very well but I seek to improve it further. Visit the new Anagram Finder at http://dotnetperls.com/anagram/. There is an accompanying article at Dot Net Perls Dot Com. Come visit; I think you'll like it. The anagram finder is fun to type into. New Code and Articles at DotNetPerls.com!Dot Net Perls Update #1There is new stuff at my source reference site, DotNetPerls.com. One article delves into SiteMapProviders, C#, recursion, and generating HTML. Includes code. An article about dealing with recursive file directories, with code that is more robust/logical than that on MSDN's site! In C#. Output caching and master pages. Some cool stuff about ASP.NET performance Have fun! Another update:The new site has code examples and pages on recursively finding file names in directories and subdirectories, counting words like Microsoft Word does in C#, full code examples of an NGEN.exe precompilation Installer Class, and some (possibly) amusing commentary on programmers and blogs. More stuff (#3)My Rot13 C# implementation, precomputed bitcounts, single instance Winforms apps without using a Mutex, 3 screenshots, an archive page, much better structure, and probably more. The new site is better in every way--no ads, 10x faster to load and smaller, code that is easier to copy/paste, a better source repository at Google Code, and a ton of improvements. Google has discovered it but hasn't indexed the latest and greatest. DotNetPerls.com New Site--MOVEDI have published a new article at my new web site, dotnetperls.com. This article has some brief samples of ASP.NET master pages, content pages, and code behind. It is the first article published on my new site layout. The new article is located here.
I am moving things to my own web site for the following reasons:
1. The new web site will make a better resource for my readers, most of whom find my site with Google and are looking for programming tips.
2. The new site will feature code that is easier to copy/paste.
3. I can learn ASP.NET and put my C# skills to more use, to a broader audience.
4. I may get a higher search engine ranking.
5. I don't get a lot of comments, and don't have a lot of "Internet friends".
6. Dot Net Perls is not really a blog, but a code resource. Static pages that are simpler will serve my audience better. The date each article was published is not important.
Here's some cool stuff I did on my new site:
1. More hyperlinks.
2. Text corrected.
3. Much easier navigation (you'll like this a lot--I do).
4. Smaller HTML, faster.
5. NO ADVERTISEMENTS, and I won't put any there any time soon!
You will like the new Dot Net Perls a lot, and I will update it with both old and popular content, and new and fresh stuff. At least for the time being.
Have fun! |
