Simon Rice – Blog

I’ve finally joined the professional blogging bandwagon.  Indeed this is the first time I’ve set up a website under my own name, so it’s all quite exciting.

So who am I?  Well, my name is Simon Rice & I’m a programmer from London.  Over the past few years I’ve been learning how to program under a number of environments from C under Linux to Java under Windows to Objective-C under Mac OSX.  My current job is a .NET development role, so most of the posts you’ll be seeing are .NET oriented, although I hope to have more generalist ideas here as well.

At least for the time being, the idea of this blog will be to post snippets & how-tos that I believe haven’t been posted anywhere else online & may hopefully come in useful to at least one other developer out there.  They’ll generally be answers to my own questions that I haven’t raised on developer forums like Stack Overflow.

I’m no expert of software licensing at the moment, so I’ve decided for the time being I should put all the code you see here out on a “credit where it’s due” licence.  That is, I don’t mind if you adapt, modify, improve, or even make it worse – all I ask is you give credit to me for any ideas I raise & possibly a link to this website.

Anyway, I have a few posts lined up & touch wood the first will be coming up very soon, so I hope you find everything here informative.
