Low bandwidth MSDN

April 20th, 2009

Low Bandwidth MSDN

Basically, instead of visiting:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmlnode.aspx

you could add “(loband)” to the URL, like:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmlnode(loband).aspx

Instead of the standard MSDN page:

You’d get a nice streamlined version. This is great for not only low-bandwidth situations, but also phones, pdas, screenreaders, etc. More on that in a second.

Interested in knowing more hidden features about mdsn? then check this link out.

Getting started with SQLite and .net

April 3rd, 2009

Recently I am working on a personal project which involved DB operations and I was confused as to which DB to use. XML was my first option as the database will be very small. But I decided to post this question in stackoverflow and finally decided to use SQLite.

If you are looking for a small databse for your windows applications then SQLite is the best option. If you are a beginner and want to learn about SQLite and VB.net then here is a winderful and easy tutorial.

SQLite does not have an IDE and if you are used to using IDE then you can use SQLite Administrator which is free. You can get it from here.
