Posted in SQL Server at 23:27 by Niklas

The coverWhile between projects I got the chance to study Analysis Services 2005 for a while and bought this book: Applied Microsoft Analysis Services 2005 : And Microsoft Business Intelligence Platform. One of the few book that are (were) actually out, but it a good, thick and heavy book in many ways. I haven’t gotten through it yet but it seems to cover everything in lots of detail. Sample chapters, source code and more is available at this page. Check out the author and his own publisher (self-owned)

Check out the Microsoft Learning course catalog for some free courses. But hurry, they will probably not be free for long… probably just until the labs are updated.

I have posted a new bug report on MSDN Product Feedback site. Please check it out and vote! I discovered this while evaluating the various mocking frameworks that are available. More on that soon.

The start of a good year, musicwise

Volk und Armee2005 was a weak year coming as a calm after a good 2004. 2004 saw fantastic releases from act like :Wumpscut: yelworC and In slaughter natives and a few more, but 2005 had etremely little (maybe only Feindflug) and especially :Wumpscut: hit an all time low with Evoke.

2006 seems promising with releases from Pride and Fall, Spetsnaz, Mesh, Das Ich and yet another :Wumpscut:, the samples from the albums sound very promising and Pride And Fall’s Element of Silence was the first purchase this year! More update when the albums start to arrive…
