Code Camp Part 2
Our code camp last weekend was a great success, at least as far as I'm concerned. Part 2 will be held Friday evening June 16 and Saturday June 17. I volunteered to teach three of the chapters, doing master / detail pages in ASP.Net, Object Binding, and Web Services. As they say, ya'll come! The event is sponsored by the BSDA.
Found a cool item (literally) at the last code camp. One of the other attendees had one of these: http://shrinkster.com/f4x It's a Targus Notebook Platform. It's sold with the idea that it cools the laptop, but to me the nice feature is that it elevates the back of your laptop up an inch or so (it's adjustable to your liking).
I'm amazed at how much easier it is to type with just that little bit of elevation. Plus the base swivels, and it will indeed keep your pricy laptop cooler. If you have an ultrawide laptop like I do, it comes with an add on bar to help stabalize the width, and it works. Very stable. Well worth the few bucks.
