Best Marketing for a Technology Ever!

Someone in my office just forwarded me a link to a video that has Scott Guthrie talking about ASP.Net.  Not very unexpected, but the video turns out to be set inside Halo thanks to the crew a Red vs. Blue and it fabulous.

I don’t know what site it was originally hosted on, but if you remotely like Halo, or ASP.Net or Scott or anything remotely cool and / or entertaining, check it out!

StrangeLoop has finally announced their AppScaler device!

Richard Campbell told me about his involvement in StrangeLoop a while ago and I have been dying to tell people about it, but until now it has been confidential.

Basically the AppScaler takes a web farms major headaches and lifts them into the loadbalancer and out of the way of your developers.  It really is a cool strategy because it gives sites real performance gains over hosting Session State on a state server or in a database along with a whole host of other performance enhancing and bandwidth saving features.
