Welcome to Gratuitous Development!

Welcome to Gratuitous Development, my belated first attempt at blogging. My focus for this site is to keep a log (funnily enough) of activities relating to Software Development primarily regarding the .net framework and surrounding technologies. Off the top of my head a few areas I hope to explore include:

• ASP.Net MVC
• Client Side e.g AJAX and jQuery
• Application Architecture 
• Development Methodologies
• ORMs such as NHibernate
• Tools I find useful like ReSharper
• and various other random things like DB4O

This is very much a learning experience for myself so any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated. If  When I do something stupid please don't just point it out, provide a solution. Eventually I'm hoping that this may in some small way benefit the .net community, however small that contribution may be :)
