Visual Assist's Tip of the Century

Probably you know the Visual Assist plug-in for Microsoft Visual Studio, which makes C++ programming in the environment zillion times handier. The story is about the bootstrap tip that highlights the feature of restoring files. While the tip window is shown, there is a second dialog box painted in the window. Since it is centred w.r.t. the screen, you perceive it as a real dialog box. Moreover, it is the usual case when Visual Assist suggests you to load some files from backup while MSVS is loading, because it does not always shut down properly. Thus, you try to close it clicking Yes or No, but nothing happens! The box is still in its place! That was really annoying.

In the later versions the developers solved the problem. They just marked the box as the example. The nice lack and the nice solution.

if these walls could talk.

sometimes it's a good thing that people can't see you....i'm waiting on a phone interview i have in thirty minutes for a magazine shoot that is coming out this summer. if only the interviewer knew i was hanging out in my bathrobe, pj pants, and had a towel in my hair. i swear i'm professional :) and that my sweet husband had to put a post it note on my desk lamp to make sure i remembered about it (oh, and the refrigerator...he knows where a pregnant girl hangs out)

i have a secret....i love watching the halfpipe (although i have to admit, i have been calling it the half pike until my husband corrected me last night)...shaun white ROCKS!! he is so good!! the olympics was so fun to watch last night...i am so happy for lindsey vonn too.
