We don’t like cricket! No no! WE LOVE IT!

Matthew Cosier is proving that he is Australian. For those of you reading that don’t know what cricket is, its a bat and ball sport not unlike baseball. Except the ball is “bowled” not “chucked”, and the players don’t chew on tobacco and spit, although there is alot of groin rubbing involved.

It is also worth pointing out that Australian’s are the best cricket players in the whole wide world, followed closely by India, and just about every other country except Zimbabwe - although they are better than England.

P.S. Boonie is a top aussie!

P.P.S. Matt, you really need to create a Cricket category on your blog mate. One for Boonie wouldn’t hurt either.





Clippy has been retrofitted into VS.NET 2003.

16 07 2004

After the huge upswell of support for Clippy’s return in Visual Studio 2005 when I spilt the beans in my post in late June I decided something needed to be done to support those developers who are working without “assistance” on VS.NET 2003.

As a result I have written an implemention of clippy as a VS.NET add-in that you can download and use right now. Please note that this is BETA software - so if Clippy doesn’t screw up your code just rest assured that we are working on it.

Now - repeat after me - I don’t need to pair program - I have Clippy!

 

P.S. Leave bug reports in the comments. Except you Dr. Neil - cause bugs don’t exist :)
