This is the first part our series about ADO.NET which is part of our Back To The Basic Series which is a series designed to teach beginners about the benefits of ADO.NET and to show how easy it is to use the ADO.NET in a short 10 to 15 minute video using Tagalog as the medium.  Our idea is to start from small demo application and build from there by adding new functionalities and refactoring the sample application on each part of the series.

On this demo you'll learn the basics of creating a connection to SQL Server, using a Universal DataLink to automatically generate your connection string to a database server, populating a DataSet using a SqlDataAdapter and assigning a DataSet to our GridView control.

Read this guys intership adventure with Microsoft, Google and Yahoo(his current job).

He also did a chart which i think would easily spellout where to go if you are looking for a place to go between the 3 giants:

I wish I had the chance to do what he did.. but hey! I had a great time at my intership too.. building Information Systems for a University.. it's not as advance at what he did but still pretty fun it you ask me :)

Don't you just love Generics? I mean, it helps you alot in so many ways that everytime you are asked about why you love Generics all you could say is "Uh, type safety?".. Err! We need to change that! There are alot more things to like about Generics than just type safety... Like code organization... more readable(if you ask me) code... and of course.. type safety(what? i thought you said there's more) :P

Looks like Russ and Shervin blew everyone off their feet :)

well.. except for 1 guy :P

Had some downtime this morning so i decided to create a short cartoon strip about programmers(and any other IT related jobs) that depict the lives of the everyday IT guy!

We are getting married this year and i'd like to share to everyone our Save The Date video :)

5 months to go and i'm really excited! :)

So Scott Kuhl got this image from somewhere...

 

He did some modifications on it by making his own version of the trio...

Well, i guess it's my turn to add to the twist...

Gee! took me time to look for the guitar tab of this beautiful song. We'll be using this for our wedding on July 4, 2007. This is the version of Regine Velasquez although I hope i could also find the version for the tabs of Sharon Cuneta's version. Anyway, I hope this helps somebody in the future because i really scoured the whole web for this and man it was a pain. I included the lyrics and tab so please Google! Index this!
