The site is run by professional developers, and offers cutting
edge articles, breaking news, forums, a developer catalogue
featuring products, training courses and jobs, humour and

Welcome to all the new subscribers this week, many of whom
appear to have found us on Tuesday judging by the huge peak on
the site traffic for that day! It's been a busy week again
on the site and also behind the scenes. We look forward to
being able to announce a variety of ASP applications which
have come out of the development of the site very soon.

to write full-length articles, FAQ's, or Byte Size, or have
other contributions. We are still looking to get the
international communities rolling and anyone interested in
moderating a community or a forum should contact
