I would like to congratulate the new year of 2009 to my readers all around the world who celebrate these days as new year holidays. I wish a coming year full of happiness and prosperity for you both in your personal life and also your job and technical stuff.

Unfortunately 2008 was not a very good and productive year for me despite I didn’t had any major problem and I was happy with my wife, my little daughter and my good friends but I expected better life and work opportunities. Anyway we passed 2008 and it’s time to take a fresh breath!

In my opinion it’s not late yet while we are alive! We’ve started a new year and I hope I would gain my goals in this new year.

I’m going to learn something new in 2009 that one of most important of them is ASP.NET MVC. Microsoft new web programming framework will rock MSFT web dev community in the coming months and I should learn more and more. So I’ve already pre-ordered a copy of Professional ASP.NET MVC 1.0 and I expect it within the March 2009. WCF may be the next candidate. We may also think of relocating our office but we (me and my friends at Digital Persia Corp.) have not yet decided.

I hope I would expand my activities in the .NET community as well. A site dedicated to ASP.NET MVC is one of my main projects (We are at early stage and I will write a post about it in near future; hopingly after RC release). This site will be founded by me and one of my dear friends but I don’t mention his name now because I guess he doesn’t yet like to announce his participation.

As I write more I remember more overdue stuff to put on schedule in 2009; one of them is migrating my blog from dasBlog to something else (BlogEngine.NET or Graffiti). What do you suggest?!

Anyway, I try to make a better 2009 because nobody else can! Let’s remember God and try to help each other more.

 

Hi!

It's a long time since I've decided not to post simple day-to-day not useful posts on Sharplife.NET; meanwhile this damn busy life doesn't allow me to post large technical posts about .NET, so if you are interested to follow some links and tiny posts you can follow me on Twitter, Jaiku, Plurk or Pownce.

I'll try to write some technical stuff periodically.

Don't forget to take a look at tabassom.com

 

Finally I decided to switch to FeedBurner to serve my blog feeds. If you want to subscribe to SharpLife.NET feed add my feed to your favorite reader.

 

My last blog entry goes back to May 2006!! Yes, I've not updated my blog since then :-( After migrating my SharpLife.NET to new server and upgrading its blog engine (dasBlog) to version 2.0 now I decide to write again.

Many things happened during the past year and talking about all of them is not a good idea and I try to talk about everything in my upcoming posts.

So forgive me for this long absence!

 

From today, I will post my cool links which I find during my daily web surf at del.icio.us/sharplife. [Subscribe to its feed if you like.]

 

Hi again! An unexpected server problem caused my blog go into coma at the first day of its life! CS wastes a huge amount of resource on shared hosting packages and it seems that it's not suitable for small scale web sites.

I tried to solve server problem and continue using CS as my portal engine but no result! While I was seeking for an alternative solution, Keyvan suggested me using dasBlog.NET instead of CS single blog. dasBlog is an open source blogging tool written in ASP.NET and is compatible with both version 1.x and 2.0 of .NET framework. dasBlog doesn't use any database to store information! It is pure XML base and so cost effective.

Because of huge amount of work which I'm challenging with in Digital Persia Corp. these days I don't have enough time to build my own theme so I used one of dasBlog default themes called "Portal".

You can find my RSS and Atom feeds links at the top of this page.

I'll be glad to receive your comments and ideas about SharpLife.NET ;)
