日本の「Microsoft .Net」フォーラム

ネットをしらべた結果、日本では.Netフォーラムはあまり存在しないようですね。それは結構かわいそうだと思います。.Net開発は日本では結構新しいのでまだ分っていないところ結構あると思います。ですが、聞く場所がないのでほぼ皆さんハック(hack)をしたり遠回りにしたりすることになりました。どうかこの状態を助けたいなぁとちょっと思いついたが自分の日本語はそんなに自慢できるレベルではないのでなかなか自身つきません。.Netに興味がある皆さん、これはただ小さなのブログなんですが質問があれば遠慮なくコメントに出してください。できるだけお返事します。

client for 2channel (2ch)

 so, because of the super-ugly appearance of 2channel and because it is so unintuitive to always refresh your browser to keep up with the thread in there, i thought of writing a client for it. well, of course there are other clients that is available for it as my friends have told me once. but, then after looking for a while, i know that there’s client that’s based on .Net. furthermore, there’s none for WPF. so, i thought it might be nice if i can make one.

 however, looking at how 2channel works, i began to wonder if there is a special API for this to work. i mean, if there are clients outthere, it’s not too much hoping somekind of ‘backdoor’ like webservice or rss feed available, isn’t it? my search returns me nothing. oh well, maybe it is unofficial or seldom discussed API or something, so i looked up at 2ch free open source clients and pop the source code open on my VS…. to my suprise, they’re all parsing the html page and building their request strings manually (doh). it seems that 2ch doesnt have an API from which a client can hook-up to. plzzzzzz give us an API.

 btw here’s the clients that i’ve been talking about:

blog reorganization..

i’ve just changed my blog theme. i thought that the old theme were just too dark. and after surfing through other blogs, i finally noticed that dark blogs are not really that fun to read. so i changed it to this theme, and i think i kinda satsified with this one.

the next time that i noticed is the ‘about’ page. it’s too old, outdated and boring (eventhough pretty much detailed.. a bit too detailed?). anyway, i decided to revamp the page when i got the time. for now i’d just put it ‘under construction’.

next, i found out that i had sooooo much categories that it just not efficient (plus it puts ridiculously long category list on my main page). id have to have all the categories squashed and reassign all my posts again one by one. fortunately, i dont really have that much posts to deal with.

finally, id have to update those links… adding new blog rolls and link of interests will be good.
