Some cool tips on writing good blog entry

Technorati Tags: Blog , Blogging , Writing , Tips , Revising , Good Writing , Good Blogging , Scott Mitchell , Yanesh Scott Mitchell (founder, 4 guys from rolla ) published a post on his blog about writing good blogs . I read the post and follow the suggested links. After reading through a chain of links, I read lots of material on good blogging. Below is the summary of what I read: How To Achieve Ultimate Blog Success In One Easy Step ( http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000983.html ) My theory is that lead generation derives from Google rank and that the best way to increase Google rank is to be like a professional fighter: neither jabs nor haymakers are enough. You must be always jabbing and you must regularly throw haymakers . Blog continuously to keep your hit-rate and link-traffic high and write longer pieces, containing the high-value words associated with your niche, occasionally. Fear of Writing ( ...

HTTP Modules' Events and Their Order of Firing

  Below is the list of Events raised by HttpHandlers. These events are in the sequence of firing. OnBeginRequest OnAuthenticateRequest OnPostAuthenticateRequest OnAuthorizeRequest OnPostAuthorizeRequest OnResolveRequestCache OnPostResolveRequestCache OnPostMapRequestHandler OnAcquireRequestState OnPostAcquireRequestState OnPreRequestHandlerExecute Page_Load Event of the Page       OnPostRequestHandlerExecute OnReleaseRequestState OnPostReleaseRequestState OnUpdateRequestCache OnPostUpdateRequestCache OnEndRequest OnPreSendRequestHeaders I wrote a http handler to check the sequence of execution of event handlers. Below is the program. Two events in the program are commented because these require integration with the IIS pipeline. I used Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition Beta 2 to write this program. So may be express edition does not support integration with IIS. I haven't checked it yet. Here is the program: using System; using System.Data; using ...

Script# - Another Flower in .Net Bouquet

Script# is a compiler that compiles C# code into JavaScript. This sounds great for ASP.Net developers who program into C#. Most of the time, C# programmers don't have good hand in JavaScript. With the client machine increasing their processing power constantly, the demand for client side scripting is very high. People talk about a new architecture that would obsolete the server side programming model. Web serve will only server HTML pages with JavaScript. If any server side processing (or database connectivity) is required, web services will fill up the gap. Using JSON, JavaScript will now directly interact with a web service from client side. All UI processing, validations etc. will be done on client side. C# and VB.net folks have to worry about that. Either they have to switch to web services or their job will not be safe. Nikhil Kothari also thinks same (though he has not expressed it anywhere). So he decided to bring C# developers on the client side. Nikhil is currently workin...

A Recipe For Killing Internet In India

A news published in Times Of India, Oct 17th, 2007 (internet edition) A Recipe For Killing Internet In India Standing Committee Goes Against International Norms To Stack Odds Against Net Service Providers, Says Manoj Mitta There is a clear and present danger to internet in India। If the recommendations of the parliamentary standing committee were to go through, you might as well pull the shutters down on the net in the country, because the committee seeks to raise the liability of internet service providers for any third party content in a manner that it will become difficult to run the service and stay away from jail. This isn't an exaggeration. Over 85% of internet deals with third party content। This includes search engines, mail services, messengers, blogs, communication and community sites. If they were to be held responsible for the sites searched, mails sent, blogs filed or scraps on community sites then service providers would be hauled up by the police for acts they are no...

Windows Live Mail

Windows Live Mail is Microsoft's successor to both Outlook Express and Windows Mail, the latter of which ships with Windows Vista. Microsoft describes Windows Live Mail as a superset of both of these consumer-oriented email products, and they will only actively develop Windows Live Mail going forward. Windows Live Mail is dramatically nicer than either Outlook Express or Windows Mail, and it includes a lot more useful functionality, especially if you're a Hotmail user. (This applies equally to msn.com and live.com accounts as well.) But Windows Live Mail isn't limited to just Hotmail accounts: This is a full-fledged Internet communications client, with support for POP3 and IMAP email, RSS feeds, and USENET newsgroups. Originally envisioned as an ad-supported email client for Hotmail users, Windows Live Mail has evolved over time and is now a much more impressive release as a result. The shipping version of Windows Live Mail--now available in a feature-complete public beta--...
