Page Methods and URL rewriting

Although I haven't used this particular project, I ran across something today that I thought was an interesting project.  The project allows you to handle page methods and rewrite URLs.  For example if you have a URL like keithelder.net/blog/article.aspx?id=12 and you want it to be keithelder.net/my-title.aspx instead.  Virtual URLs are very handy.  Even on blogs like this for example where you link to a post of a item, you aren't really hitting a static page.  It is all virtual. 

The project just released an update for VS2005. You can check it out on the offical PageMethods web site.

How an open source developer transitioned to .Net

For a long time I've been wanting to put this together.  A lot of my friends who were open source advocates like myself are perplexed with my transition to what they call the "Dark Side" of development.  Referring of course to Microsoft as the evil empire.  I took some time this morning to finish how and why I migrated from programming mainly in PHP to .Net.  I didn't want to put this information into a blog post because as I was writing it, it just didn't feel right so I created an article out of it.  In order to give you the full picture I give some information on my background to cement how firmly planted I was in open source technologies.  Then I give you some of my thoughts on the conversion process.  In the end, I give some advice for others that might be curious as how to make this conversion.
