Dang, this programming stuff can be fun

So, needing a break from slogging through the networking stuff I thought I'd fire up VS and see how one creates an application for a smart device. Dang, it is some cool stuff!

Yeah, sorry about the lack of resolution. This is my practice application.

Ahh ok , Man that is nice. Must be great to write apps for mobile stuff. That could come in very handy indeed. I could see so much use for this, from Grocery lists, to DVD collections.

Bingo! Being the avid DVD collector I am that is exactly what I'm going make/build/develop. The grocery/recipe list thing, though interesting from a database design problem, is really not as exciting for me as the DVD tracker thing.

All I have to do is squeeze time into a bottle so I can find time while I wade through the 4000 pages of study material for my network certification.
