Alright, it's almost 4 pm, and I am giving up. When I upgraded to beta 1 of Community Server I wiped out my assemblies and forgot to put back the blogging service API DLL. I can't seem to successfully download it either, so there goes my attempt to blog on the road from my beta device that I have been testing for the past month or so and which I have to return next week, thus totally breaking my heart. So anyway, I'm using the little web text box to come to you Live! (whee!) from Philly where the Visual Studio/SQL Server 2005 launch event is winding down. It's certainly anticlimactic after all the CTP builds, and some of the sessions are a little sleep inducing. Plus the demo gods aren't smiling down on the presenters today either. But hey, we got our free software and T-shirt, although come on Microsoft, where is my freaking free VS/SQL pen?! These events always have free pens! And the consensus from the female half of my group is that there really should be T-shirt sizes smaller than large. Oh well, at least it was a day away from the office.
Update: well, apparently the problem wasn't caused by a lack of assemblies, since I just found out that CS 2.0 now includes the blogging API files right out of the box. Bummer, that means my blogging software is broken.
