Doing Maintenance on ASP sucks!

RANT WARNING!

Firstly a whinge about ASP classic and yet another case of failing to keep pace.  Whilst I understand there are loads of classic asp pages out there (and these can be quite good), sometimes I wish things would move along with the times.  What I mean is no-one has really maintained the pile of cr*p pages I’ve been lumbered with (for the 2nd time!),  save where a functional change is required. No Housekeeping has ever been performed, so it has become more difficult to maintain. its totally frustrating!!

Just a quick note…

Its been a  very long while, and Typically i’ve been a bit rubbish on this… but I’m going to stop procrastinating and start posting my ramblings, albeit about Dev type stuff, a lot more often! 

I’m going to attempt to tackle subjects, some of which I still need to get my head round. These will be coming up soon on this blog. Hopefully..and in no particular order, they may include:

• Agile Process pilot  -observations of what worked and what didn’t?
• Test Driven Development -  in simple terms
• C# feature of the week - Lambda functions (I think the c# feature of the week might actually turn into a regular post !)
• Design Pattern for Dummies (Another Idea for regular feature!)
• A brief overview of Windows Workflow Foundation

I’m using the blog to help me learn and understand, as well as help others. We’ll see how successful that is…..
