Welcome to Nathan Dunlap's corporate blog for IdentityMine.
IE8 beta 2… Is it worth installing now?
So far in the last couple hours I have found 3 great benefits of IE8 beta 2. First IE8 is launching really fast. This is great since I am doing a lot of Silverlight stuff lately… Build and run gets painful when you are doing it hundreds of times a day. IE 8 boots up noticeably [...]

PDC 2008 I will see ya there!

Cursorinski at Bloginski
Josh Wagoner is blogging. http://blog.dobaginski.com/josh/ Josh is a “experience software engineer” at IdentityMine and he doesnt have any secret identities that I know of so I can openly brag about how good he is. I worked with him on the snowboard app that was shown at CES among many other projects. He’s also the mastermind behind [...]

Exciting day for identity mine
First I wake up to the news that Laurent Bugnion (the code trotter himself) will be working with identity mine. This is fantastic news for us as Laurent is amazingly talented and incredibly fun to work with. Read his post here.

great coffee at identity mine…
<ShamelessPlug> Just saw a post on Jackson Fish Market about this article. Apparently startups are scrimping on coffee.. This is a travesty… One that I am happy to say that identity mine is definitely not a part of. We requested cafeine and identity mine delivered. We just purchased a Rancilio Silvia and Rocky for our new Pioneer [...]

Tips and Tricks: Expression Blend 2 Design-Time Size
Whoa! Here is a feature that slipped through cracks for me but is something I have been asking for a long time… I just didnt know they got it into Blend 2. It used to be in Blend that you had to explicitely set a width and height to see your content render (specifically around root [...]

They really are listening…

I don’t like the Silverlight 2.0 Control Templating Model (a flip side to Robby’s comparison between WPF and Silverlight model.)
Just read Robby’s excellent post about silverlight templating model. I will start off by admitting that I think Robby is a ton smarter than I am and his intimate experience with helping to define the templating and styling models for WPF make him a much better candidate to see the big picture of this topic. To [...]

The Nate Mix 08 Update…
Late night here in Vegas and Im totally trying to get work done getting ready to deliver our Nerd+Art talk tomorrow. Listening to NIN Ghosts I-IV. Pretty sweet… Add this to Radiohead’s “In Rainbows” because I wanted to support an artist who is testing the waters with direct distribution. (It’s ironic that Im excited about [...]

Nice! "THE NEW ITERATION" hard copy
Karsten and Jaime’s white paper on “How XAML Transforms the Collaboration Between Designers and Developers in Windows Presentation Foundation” is included in the goody bag (that Mark so graciously gave me since speakers don’t get one…lame) This is a really nice addition to the “mix” of stuff that we get here.
