It’s been quiet around here lately. I moved to a new apartment a bit over a month ago now and won’t get an internet connection for at least another month it seems so things are going a bit slowly on the development front. I’ve managed to put together a few things though which might be of help to some.

First of all is a .Net library (and client) for working with DynDns services named DynDnsLib (and CrazyBeaversDnsUpdater for the client application) for people who want to add support for DynDns services to their applications. More information (and sourcecode via SVN) can be found at the link below.

Second up is an implementation of the Akismet (spam detecting service that WordPress and a few others use) API for .Net 2.0. It is a quite basic implementation that could be extended a bit more if someone wants to but it should be working fairly well as it is. More info (not much) and source at the link below.

None of these projects are in their final version, but both works fairly well at least. If anyone want to contribute to any of these projects then send me an email to karl.sjogren@gmail.com and tell me what you want to implement/change and I’ll consider giving you write access to the SVN repository.

When thinking about it, checking out source from an SVN repository might be a bit tricky unless you know what you are doing, maybe I should put together an article for that aswell some day if people seem to want it.

As some might know now the server that hosted all my stuff crashed a few weeks ago. I’ve now given up on getting any backups of the files or databases so I set this up from scratch on my own server (hosted out of a friends closet) retrieving the text for my articles from TheWayBackMachine. I’ll fall a bit behind on any new articles for now though since I lost my 2 most read articles and have to rewrite them now .

Anyway, thats the current state of business and I really hope that I’ll be able to get all articles up and running quite soon as well as a few new goodies.
