redbitbluebit.com — It turns out that I'm not some kind of a kook for thinking there's more to software development than MSDN. There's even a name for what I assumed should be standard practice for software developers: ALT.NET.

Microsoft trying to steer the ALT.NET movement (the combat badge). I wonder how long it will be before Microsoft owns their meetings too? I'm speaking at the Indy ALT.NET meeting this Thursday though I've been banned for life from the microsoft groups. So he lists SubSonic (Microsoft now), and then a bunch of LINQ technologies and NHibernate under "Object Relational Mapper/Data Access Layer". I tried to email him on that page but it was going to cost me money just to email him, sheese. I wonder how long before ALT.NET is crushed under by the IMSM?

Good article otherwise by the way.

@Mike - am I missing some part of this article, or did you comment to the wrong DNK post?

LOL, sorry, no I was just commenting on the "the Geek Code generator put together by Scott Hanselman." I have a lot of hopes for ALT.NET and just hate to see Microsoft employees creating lists of ALT.NET technologies that list mostly other Microsoft technologies (as is true in our category). I think I have a different opinion than some folks, I view the ALT part as "Alternative" and see that evaporation somewhat but for the movement even gets moving .... Just ignore me, I work too many hours ....

@Mike - oh, okay, gotcha now.

Re: MS products being listed in the ALT.NET Geek Code -- that's a good point and quite funny. :-) I've seen the Geek Code before and the irony never dawned on me!

Ya, maybe I'm paranoid but I see Microsoft co-opting the ALT.NET movement before it even hits the ground, I know one thing, I'll be off the approved speaker list faster than you can blink an eye. I hope I'm wrong but probably not. ;) I feel a blog post coming on tonight, a real rage against the macine ;(
