I forgot a couple of things I wanted to say…

Firstly, it’s been a while since I updated Subtext, so I went ahead and did that. And just in case you’re as dumb as I am, late me save you a few minutes by informing you to make sure you don’t copy up the web.config blindly. Oh yeah…there was 5 minutes of my time wasted digging around for the connection string to the blog’s database so I could put the site back together…Good times….

But back to KodeBits. I wanted to touch on my reasoning behind this.. I’ve been playing around with ASP.NET MVC for a little while now, and I’ve been really looking for a site to build with it. And now that ASP.NET MVC 2 is on it’s way, I finally figure something out. The technologies I’m using are:

SubSonic AND Entity Framework (That’s right both)
ASP.NET MVC 1.0 (Will upgrade to 2.0 once that’s in VS2010)
Structure Map – Don’t know how I got along without this..
A whole lot of jQuery love

Yeah, I’m using a simple repository pattern, and I wanted to have two different repository types built off of my Interfaces. Why? Cuz I can. I know it’s extra work, but I like the idea of being able to flip between two for no reason whatsoever. Plus I wanted to show a colleague the benefits of the repository/interface approach.

Hrm, ok I think that’s it for real this time.
