I just found this, and it's very cool. Select your country and state or province, and you'll see a schedule of when the ISS and shuttle will be passing overhead in the sky. I saw it a couple nights ago. It was very very cool. My kids especially liked it.

Earwok

I went out to lunch with my parents today, and my mom, believing that I am still 5 years old, gave me a couple of presents, or "prezzies" as she likes to call them.

We couldn't pull it off in time, folks. However, next week is Carl week. In Hanselminutes I'm doing a Scott-style show about Digital Audio, and in dnrTV Mark Miller is guest host and I show how to write an asynchronous sockets terminal windows application in VB.NET. The following week I show how to do a sockets-based instant messaging server.

As for the rest of the holiday season:

No shows will be published the week of Christmas.

Scott is going on vacation for the month of December. We recorded two shows. One will air next week (Dec 6th) and the other on the 20th.

We don't know when we can do another Mondays. Perhaps after the holidays.
