Turns out SQL server is awesome.



So I was introduced to databases earlier on this semester. The teacher started us with Oracle SQL. The results are seen on this post here. So yes, not much of an impact on my life. But I decided to start a side project with databases, with MySQL. I made a small login application to register games, never finished but I made the SQL part successfully. From MySQL I was introduced to SQL Server from Microsoft. I dismissed it at first because I thought it was just a jumble of toolbars and another VisualStudio-like application.












Well its not. I messed around with it a bit and I'm amazed. Being a feature crack addict I just can't resist the interface with all its menus and functionality toolbars.

The code editor is great and offers IntelliSense and bla bla, the usual Microsoft development'ish features you would find in any other product. You can schedule publications to subscribers and manage remote servers. 

So there goes my craze placing images. I'd like to get more code sample but with school killing us I won't be coding anything really fun for a while. Just 20 more days and I'm outta there. Can't wait.

Back from the dead ! (Again)

Yes I did it again ! I fled the clogging world and now I'm back ! Actually I've taken a detour at tumblr and since it sucked so much here I am again !

I've moved from VB.net to C# and overworked with school. So expect better and rarer posts (at least until school is over) so why do I bother to tell anyone at all ? Nothing really.
