I looks very nice!

If only CNN and BBC would put as much information as SlashDot in their feeds I actually think I could live without tele-text on my tv

Yes, I'd have to agree.

He's been quite prolific, I've got two more of his plugins in my inbox that I still need to look at.

He's going to put some of us to shame

I do not know about that. But I have had some free time last week and it was an excuse to do some C sharp stuff. Work has been slow.


The other two plugins that sub is refering too.

One is an address book, but easily can be modified for any collection including receipes etc..

The second comes with an active x application. The active x application is used to organize your dvd's. The plugin that works with it is used to pull in that list and display categories, dvd's in that category if you click on the dvd it fetches the info from imdb and presents it to you including information on who if anyone has borrowed the movie.

The activex application was going to be shareware but I figured that was too much work. So I made it free.


Any other ideas for plugins please post. I am still considering doing the movie theater plugin.

I've had to work this weekend so havn't had time to look at the other plugins yet, but I'll promise I'll get to it as soon as I can.

I was thinking of working on an X10 plugin but I am still behind the curve in .NET, so I thought I would throw it out there.
A full two-way monitor and control screen of the devices in your house with option for image background. MVP compatable of course.
Serial Adapter code is out there, but the new USB  Adapter would be nice for newer hardware.
Would anyone else have a need for this?

I would be interested in the X10 plug in
I've got a few X10 devices that I've used for years by manual remote

Even though I've got the serial controller (CM11a) I haven't made the move to a full controller based system.

I'd like to see one that implemented time based actions and actions triggered when it sees certain commands send from other devices.

For example, I'd like to see a programmed action occur when a device on command is sent from my outside spotlight/motion detector.

A scripting language would be real nice
