    Umbraco is an Open Source .NET based CMS. As always open source projects can teach us a lot about how things can be done properly (usually). Here I opened one of the unit test files just to show how they do unit testing in that project. This project uses a lot of the same technologies we use. Should be helpful. Play around with it, you might just learn something :).

A Brief Rant on the Future of Interaction Design - 2 views

  • visions matter. Visions give people a direction and inspire people to act, and a group of inspired people is the most powerful force in the world
  • The most important thing to realize about the future is that it's a choice. People choose which visions to pursue, people choose which research gets funded,
  • be inspired by the untapped potential of human capabilities. Don't just extrapolate yesterday's technology and then cram people into it.

How To Become A Web Design Expert - Smashing Magazine - 2 views

  • being an expert is more than about getting people to listen. If that is all you can manage, then they will see through this shallow desire and not give you the status that you believe you deserve
  • design that lessons learned four years ago do not apply today. But I’m not convinced that is the case. In my experience, although technology changes, people do not. The majority of unexpected issues that arise when developing a website relates either to human error or to some element of user experience
  • Too many of the people I worked with coasted through the years with no passion for their work. Without passion, they had no desire to learn new things or push boundaries.

  • I believe that an almost obsessive passion for Web design is required to be a true expert.
  • Succeeding in your chosen career and becoming a true expert requires that you fail not just once or twice, but again and again.
  • Being willing to fail is a sign of maturity, bravery and a desire to do better.
  • Those who are never seen to fail are either too timid
  • to try, for fear of public ridicule, or simply do not desire success enough to endure the sting of failure.
  • The first step to being recognized as an expert is to stop insisting that you are one
  • The truly great have little to prove,
  • Becoming an expert has to be about more than having an ego trip. Rather, it should always be about serving others. You become an expert so that you can do a better job for your clients, provide more value to your organization and help others establish best practice in your industry. Ultimately, if all you want is to be loved and respected, you will never achieve your aim. People can detect that kind of narcissism a mile away and will dismiss you as vain.
