New Forum

[XMyth]

Rise, could you add a .NET forum to the computer forums?

[RiseStar]

Maybe if you would be good to explain what .net is?

[XMyth]

Haha, does no one know what it is? Basically the .NET I was referring to is Microsoft's .NET Framework (C#, ASP.NET etc..). I'm not referring to the hype but the new framework for programming in Windows. The class library the new C# and VB.NET language.

Basically the forum I was suggesting would cover technical questions regarding the .NET class library and/or .NET language (VB.NET and C#) questions.


A lot of people think it's hype, but believe me...the majoriy of people who say that haven't used it and/or don't know what it is. Those who use it everyday at work *know* how useful it is. Anyhow...I'm not trying to peddle any good here..=) Just thought it'd be a good place for technical discussions.

Sorry, not a microshaft groupie so am not up on all the names of their toys. :)

Yes, I can do that. I am also planning to add some Linux forums as well for those interested.

[XMyth]

Thanks.



Just Linux forums or *BSD too? I like linux but I love FreeBSD.

I think Linux and Unix forums would be well received! :D

Rise -

.NET is really cool stuff. I think the forum would be great.

I don't know if you would have any personal interest in it, but I think that a vast majority of computer junkies would love it.

What Is .NET? (http://www.microsoft.com/net/basics/)

Yup, I think a .net forum would be great, as well as a free software (linux/bsd) forum. Course, straight c and c++ and java is being ignored here :) Maybe split the computer related forums into regular and advanced?

Done, Done Done & Done :)
