Starting today, a non-printable PDF version of my book “Visual Studio .NET Tips and Tricks” is available as a free download exclusively on InfoQ.com, a new enterprise software development community that covers Java, .NET, Ruby, SOA, and Agile. Launching today, InfoQ.com comes from the same people that started the much-read TheServerSide.net, and even before launch InfoQ.com has generated a lot of traffic, blogs and articles already, so keep an eye on this website.
In order to download the book, simply visit InfoQ.com, register and download the PDF and if you would like to support InfoQ.com and myself, feel free to purchase the print copy, so I can put bread on the table for my wife and 8 children (k, I am kidding of course).
I can’t believe that it’s almost two years already since I published this book. 70% of this book was written during my 1-hour lunch break when I was still working in San Diego. The rest was written in the Downtown Bellevue Library. A lot of people are asking me whether I will write a second book, and I am sorry to disappoint you all, but I am afraid that I won’t find the time to write a 2nd edition, even though I very much would like to.
