Learn iOS App Development from Stanford University (Free!)

If you have an interest in building applications for iOS devices there are many books and online resources available. How about learning at Stanford University – for free!

Welcome to my new website!

I finally got around to creating a personal website. This site will highlight my current and past projects and also features a blog where I’ll be posting tips and info regarding design and development. I’ll be covering topics that cover Mac, iOS devices and even some Microsoft technologies (SharePoint, .NET, C#, etc) and anything else tech related.

Matching Oracle and .NET Data Types

If you’ve had to interact with an Oracle database within a .NET application you’ll want to know how to properly match up the various data types – some of these aren’t super obvious – so here they are for reference.

Faster Access to STSADM

STSADM, the super hero of SharePoint 2007, turned side-kick to PowerShell in 2010, is still really useful. But out of the box you have to go find him each time you need him – wouldn’t it be great if you could just call him by name anywhere?

User Group Authorization

Checking out the credentials of the currently logged in user can be extremely important before sharing top secret information or exclusive functionality.

How to Install PowerShell ISE

Given that STSADM may be deprecated at some point, it’s important to start learning PowerShell now.

SharePoint 2010 Tag Cloud

One of the cool new webparts in SharePoint 2010 is the “Tag Cloud”. However, if you upgraded from MOSS 2007 the “Tag Cloud” webpart isn’t automatically available. It’s hidden in a feature called “Portal Layouts”.

SharePoint Internal Field Names

For the times when a space is really _x0020_ or the when “Date Picture Taken” is not obviously “ImageCreateDate” you’ll find the following list of SharePoint 2010 internal field names extremely useful.

SharePoint Manager

SharePoint Manager 2010 is a SharePoint object model explorer. It enables you to browse every site on the local farm and view every property. It also enables you to change the properties.
