In the past, I resisted storing anything in the various "My Documents" folders established by Win 95, Win 98, and XP. I finally switched t...
I have MANY small "Test Projects" where I put together just enough code to prove or disprove some idea I'm working on. Some time (sometimes several months) later, I need to use some of this code. It can take hours searching through poorly named folders to find the gem of code I'm looking for. It's not enough to be worth a Blog or wiki...

Within a Visual Studio (2005/2008) Project I'd like to use an open source library.

So far so good, but if I'd like to debug into the open source library or want to take a look at a class impl...
