Back in the earlier days of the internet I remember that in certain browsers, every time you downloaded an image or a file, the URL of where that file was downloaded from would be written into that file's properties (I guess the summary tab?).

Hi, I'd like to know what are the most useful JQuery plugins. I'm particularly interested in those which are likely to be useful in general UI development, such as Tablesorter, rather than those which serve uncommon needs.

I'm in the process of planning an application that would make use of the "ADD Helper" plugin of Compiz-Fusion running on Linux. Since I'm just in the planning stages, I basically want to know if it is feasible to use the plugin in a call from an application. The application would theoretically display a dialog box, and black out the re...

I'm looking for suggestions about how can I build an extensible WCF server (with dynamically loaded services), preferably using System.Addins or MEF. The server should host any WCF service (contained in DLL assemblies, loaded in runtime) that implements a minimal "plugin" API (StartService/StopService/GetStatus?/etc). This post is a go...
