I've seen the future and it will be.

InfoPath may become for XML, what the Basic language was and is for binary stuff. 

Thinking that technical knowledge about all the odd stuff around angle brackets and infosets alone will remain to be a sufficient foundation for a career or even a whole business may be as fatal as thinking in the 1980's that your x86 assembly skills will be enough to support your family for the next 30 years. It works for a few, it won't work for most. Ladies and Gents, it seems like XML is growing up and is getting all dressed up for prime time -- get over it. [Clemens Vasters]

I had the good fortune this evening to talk to my friend and fellow RD Carl Franklin, and I'm featured in an audio interview on his very popular Internet Audio Talk Show for .NET Developers - .NET Rocks.

Check out my interview for the Week of March 3, 2003 in both Windows Media (WMA) and MP3 formats at Franklins.NET Rocks!

Wow, that's pretty slick.  I love TouchGraph stuff.  Looks like my blog is in a good neighborhood.  I'm glad I moved to this side of town. Thanks to Scott "Fuzzy" Johnson for the link!

Ah, I love new additions to my ever-growing and ever-productive C:/UTILS, which increasingly is filled with utilities written with and running in this funky new environment called .NET.  You know, I think MS might be on to something. ;)

Ari offers a tip to tortured souls removing ThreeDegrees on uninstalling Windows' IPv6 support.  Make sure you yank this interface before shutting down and uninstalling services:

netsh.exe interface ipv6 uninstall

How can anyone expect to market an OS to The Average Joe if this kind of incantation is always needed? Shouldn't IPv6 support for Windows XP be as easy to uninstall as IPv4 currently is? (uninstall from Network Properties)

I'm not sure if netsh.exe is necesssary if you use ipv6.exe...Here's the easiest way I could find to uninstall IPv6:

Q.		How do I uninstall the IPv6 Protocol for Windows XP?

A.

To remove the IPv6 Protocol for Windows XP: Log on to the Windows XP computer with a user account that has local administrator privileges. Open a command prompt. From the Windows XP desktop, click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Command Prompt. At the command prompt, type: ipv6 uninstall
