Hi! I'm Milan Negovan (here's how I pronounce my name).
The mission of this site is to promote both ASP.NET and web standards.
For 20 years, I've worked with a wide range of Microsoft technologies. For the past 9 years I've been building web applications exclusively with ASP.NET.
I got my hands on ASP.NET shortly after its debut at PDC 2000 and have been coding for .NET ever since. After many thousands of read pages of documentation and books, mountains of pizzas and rivers of Coke, I decided to put my experience to work and share it with other developers and designers.
Between 2004 and 2008 I was a Microsoft ASP.NET MVP (I ditched the program). In 2009 I became a Certified Sitecore Developer.
I consider myself a rare mix of a "UI guy" and a back-end junky with the mindset of a proverbial Software Architect.
These days, I run a solo consulting practice. Please review my "Rules of Engagement".
I love poking around under the hood of ASP.NET. Often times I wish certain subjects were covered better in documentation and on the web in general. ASP.NET is very powerful and learning its internals is a ton of fun. Please let me know if you're interested in some specific topic.
I love books. On average I buy one or two books a month and actually read them. I encourage you to post reviews and recommendation of your favorite books.
The site is written completely in C#. Since ASP.NET did not produce markup that was clean enough for validation, some "page fudging" needed to take place to force compliancy.
While designing this site I drew inspiration from the PGA Open Championship site designed by Todd Dominey.
All work on this site is licensed under a BSD license which means you may use my code and/or binaries for commercial purposes. The license is very liberal, but it is a license nonetheless so make sure you read it.
