Hello.

Reduced the number of posts on my front page and that seemed to sort it out

My Final Year project covered Telecoms fraud. It included a call detail record generator.I have had a fair few queries about this, mostly around how to develop a CDR tool.Whilst I have only ever seen one CDR file. I did do a fair amount of research around the subject and I found out quite a bit.Firstly, I choose to store the least amount of data that I could get away with.

I am having problems with it not outputting the Full Text feed at the moment, and I can’t work out what the problem is.

I have created a place where any Amazon Marketplace seller can link to a list of all their products.Currently it is only for the UK, but making it US based will not be hard at all.If you know you market place seller ID: mine is A30C94ZTNLBKQM, then you can link to http://www.kinlan.co.uk/amazon/uk/Selled ID and get a page that can be indexed by search engines easily.For example: http://www.kinlan.co.uk/amazon/uk/A30C94ZTNLBKQM will take you to a list of my products.

I have updated my tag directory, it now includes Amazon product data. It pulls data from the Amazon AWS (Books currently) that are related to the tag in the tag directory. I am thinking of putting images in, but currently it just adds links.It is another Web 2.0 API to add to this Mashup. Now it include: Amazon AWS Del.icio.us Yahoo Search API Google Blog Search RSS Results

I have updated my tag directory, it now includes Del.icio.us data. It pulls RDF data from del.icio.us for the most popular items for a tag.Check it out some examples RDF and RSS

As I promised in a previous post I have uploaded the OPML source code.The code is a basic Main() which instantiates the OPML object, serializes it and then deserializes it (to kind of prove that it works).The Object model isn’t very clean, infact it is pretty hackey! But anyway it is here now :) using System; using System.IO; using System.Text; using System.Xml.Serialization; using OPML.OPML; namespace OPML { /// /// Summary description for Class1.

If technorati reports this “Rank: 0 (236 links from 22 sites)” about my blog, does that make it the best blog ever? I hope so ;)

A visitor to my site was looking for “directory explorer c#”. I know they wouldn’t have found what they wanted, they would have found my tag directory instead. Hopefully this post might rectify this in the future.The first thing I think when I saw this query was, does this person mean ASP.Net Internet Directory browsing or do they mean a Win32 application for browsing directories in the System.IO namespace.I am presuming the latter, because the former can be configure in IIS without any c#.

[This is the second time I typed this because IE7 suddenly closed down whilst I was typing the original post.] I have been playing around with the .Net XML Serialization over the past couple of days. I thought it would be a good idea to create an object based roughly around the OPML 2.0 DRAFT spec. With the intent of being able to serialize and deserialize OPML files with ease.I had some successes with Serializing the OPML Object.

I will look into this, thanks to the people who let me know. Hopefully I can get it to work in Internet Explorer 7 (IE7 Beta 2) better.

I am trying to extend the reach of this site recently, especially with my Tag Directory. I will go over how I created the tag directory soon, and I will also show you the source code (it is really simple).Under each post at the moment I link directly to Amazon, I intend to link to a landing page on my site first now which will host very specific information about the books that I recomend.

I have just updated my my tag directory [try http://www.kinlan.co.uk/tag/anytag - replacing anytag with the tag you want to look for]. I have updated the styles and also implemented some caching so that subsequent requests will be quick!Have a play and let me know what you think.Let me know what you would like to see here. I am thinking of integrating del.icio.us and Amazon products. Additionally I would like to auto generate some OPML feeds for each tag!

I really wish that Blogger had a global search and replace on Blogger posts. I need to go back through 300 pages to update some of my content.

My OPML files are malformed. I need to get them sorted.Apostrophes are not being escaped in the attributes.If you have been using my Ajax Tagger v2, I am sorry about this, (but seeing as no one has reported this as a problem, I don’t think anyone is using it that much :)

Check out http://www.microsoft.com/xna/ and Tom Miller’s Blog XNA Framework Microsoft unveiled the XNA Framework at the Game Developers Conference 2006. The XNA Framework is an exciting new development and execution environment which will allow game developers to more easily create games which run on the Microsoft Windows and Xbox 360 platforms. It is being designed with a unified set of class libraries which will allow for maximal re-use of code and assets across target platforms.

I am creating my very own tag directory. Rather than include all the information related to a post here on this entry, I am thinking of putting the data on a seperate page.It will allow the data to get indexed better, but will also mimic Technorati in a way, I will be able to tag my own directories and also provide a central, dynamic place for my data to be displayed.

Thanks Atariboy for the link, it was a very nice thing you said. C#, .Net Framework - A great blog about Everything C# and the DotNet framework, much like the title of the blog, i’m going to read this one a lot :) Just need to keep up with the blog posting now ;)

A visitor to my site entered the search: “extract bitmaps out of imagelist c#”There are a couple of ways to do this, a simple one is to simply call the Save method on the ImageList Item:imageList1.Images[i].Save(“c:\test.jpg”, ImageFormat.Bmp);You could however save it to a Stream, and then manipulate the image as you see fit.MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(); imageList1.Images[i].Save(ms, ImageFormat.Bmp); byte[] imageBits = ms.ToArray(); //Manipulate data
