Agile Principles, Patterns, and Practices in C# (Robert C. Martin)
I bought this after attending Claudio Lassala’s session DEV314 Beyond the Core Concepts of Object-Oriented Programming at the recent Tech.days 24 hour event, it was well worth staying up all night. After attending the above session on Tech.days I felt as if Claudio was saying all the things I had been groping for (I won’t say “striving for” because that suggests I had some idea of where I was going and didn’t), ways I was trying to work but not quite making it. Now I think I’ve started on a new way to code that truly will be more elegant.
Which I noticed many talking about and recommending, I think it was recommended on one of the Geek-Speak sessions. I do love the jQuery approach, the none invasive approach to coding JavaScript in pages seems to marry so well with MVC, which I am now taking a serious look at. Hopefully I’ll have some posts on jQuery and MVC soon.
Oh and I think Silverlight 3 is cool also.
