Feed Description: Duncan is the Visual Basic Content Strategist at MSDN, the editor of the Visual Basic Developer Center (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic), and the author of the "Coding 4 Fun" column on MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/using/columns/code4fun/default.aspx). While typically Visual Basic focused, his blogs sometimes wanders off of the technical path and into various musing of his troubled mind.
Back in June I published a column showing you how to make a simple Pocket PC remote for Windows Media player. I didn't know it at the time, but some of my readers have sent in links to a professional version of the same idea. Built using the .NET Framework 1.1 and C#, Zerama looks amazing... everything I wanted in mine, but built and supported by someone else (I love to code, but I'm happy to have someone else do it for me too!).
Check it out, pull down the demo from here and then you can buy the full version for only $20.00.
Very cool stuff... even handles radio favorites and video content from your library!
Oh, and in case you are wondering... no kickbacks involved here folks... I'm just excited to see cool media related code created using .NET!
