Jan 7 2002 ____________________________________________________________               C o v e r Y o u r A S P . c o m                  http://CoverYourASP.com/ ____________________________________________________________ Christmas is over and I'm feeling fat[ter] but it's good to be back at work. Kind of. Me and my little sideline web development company[1] made a lot of money over the holidays so I may even have made a profit from Christmas! Mind you, it didn't last long. Office furniture, Quickbooks Pro, the ProposalKit[2] that I mentioned last time and all the sundry bits and pieces soon ate up a chunk of it. For all of you that are planning to go the same route I'm going to be writing a list of must-see URL's, products and things-to-do as you build your website and company. There's quite a lot to share!

The main prize is a complete set of components from VisualASP, who were kind enough to again donate their component suite to the lucky winner. I couldn't resist putting my current favorite ASP book in the contest again: "ASP.NET Unleashed" by Stephen Walther.

I can receive emails, but cannot send them. The same problem happens on the site too, so if you've asked the site to send you email (by asking for your password or recommending the site to someone) then it may not have got through. My host is working on it but it's apparently a little bizarre! Thanks for being patient. ______ 29 Dec ______ - I'm driving to Kentucky for a few days (a state I've never been to, so it'll be interesting). So, you'll just get an "out-of-office" reply if you contact me. I'll reply when I get back next week. If any of you CYA-veterans would like to help out by answering any questions on the CYA list[1], I'd appreciate it. [1] http://aspfriends.com/aspfriends/aspcya.asp ______ 2 Jan ______ - Back to work <sigh />. Actually, I'm looking forward to it since there are some hot new things planned for this year. .NET is nearly upon us, work is coming in thick and fast and it's all still great fun! I stepped back and made a list the other day and there are now five major new sites that I want to work on in the coming months, so it'll be a busy time. I'd like to wish you all a happy and prosperous 2002! ______ 4 Jan ______ - Edwin Lopez helped out a lot this morning by pointing out that you don't get the extra 5 contest points[1] each time you visit the site. I "fixed" a bug a few weeks ago and failed to spot that side-effect. It's fixed now. Thanks Edwin [1] http://coveryourasp.com/Contest.asp ______ 6 Jan ______ - Here's a link that James Harris forwarded me from his website. It's a neat page that you can download and install on your server that allows you to see which of the 170+ common components are installed. Like James says "Since many hosts never tell you when they install things for other customers, you can sometimes take advantage of what you find from this.". http://www.pensaworks.com/tutorials/test_asp_components.asp ______ 7 Jan ______ - Another contest finished last night and a new one started. The winner was Blake Carr from Memphis who won over $600-worth of prizes! The new contest features the same book again (I love the ASP.NET Unleashed book) and the ever popular VisualASP components. Good luck! http://coveryourasp.com/ContestPrizes.asp ___________________________________________________________                   T O O L S   I   U S E                      ProposalKit 5.0          http://www.proposalkit.com/affdir/1461.htm ____________________________________________________________ If you are a web site designer, and you want to steer clear of the pitfalls out there, come armed with professional looking proposals and "close the deal", then this product is for you.

How? http://coveryourasp.com/Snippet.asp?snip=47 7 Jan: Can I run ASP on XP Home Edition? http://coveryourasp.com/Snippet.asp?snip=48 ______ By the way, many have asked how my advertisers feel about me offering better chances of winning my contest for each page viewed. The implication is that the clickthrough rate must have declined. It's not a problem - the contest generates very few extra page views in the scheme of things. Think that in the last two weeks only 204 members racked up any page views for the contest - in the context of 350,000 page views a month it's barely noticeable. I still feel it's worth it though, just to give regular readers a small thank-you for coming back. Thanks Guys! Speak to you later.
