RE: [LMSDev] Hey!

Welcome aboard Steve. There’s a few of us here on the list work at a company in Lincoln where the vast majority of the development has been in PHP and Perl but we are gradually moving over to .NET. We’re using TFS and welcome any tips you may have as to how to get the most out of it, or what to avoid!

 

Personally I started in computers in the days of punch cards, worked on IBM Midrange machines for a long time, then moved into writing websites. I think my first one was when Demon started, remember them? I started using ASP for hooking websites up to databases as it seemed a lot easier than typing it all in again, then got onto the VS.NET beta program and moved over to ASP.NET. Had a few years out of fulltime IT but am now back at it again.

Subject: [LMSDev] Hey!

 

Greetings all!

I'm a M$ developer, and have been for over eight years. I started with
VB/VBA, and then moved onto .NET not long after the Beta came out. I've
been developing with .NET and SQL Server ever since. I now use VSTS 2008
with TFS 2008, and SQL Server 2005.

I was born and raised in Lincoln, but now live and work in Nottingham.
However, I get back to Lincoln regularly as I have family there still.
It's still a lovely place!

Nice to meet you all!

Steve.

Hi Karl, I'm not quite old enough to remember punch cards, but have been around a while now! At the risk of sounding like an M$ salesperson, TFS and VSTS are...
