Video: Comparing More Than One File At a Time in Visual Studio

Visual Studio has long supported the concept of opening more than one file.  Most all IDE tools and text editors support this concept so it is nothing new.  In Visual Studio as files are opened they are displayed along the top in tabs (also a standard convention).  This allows developers to switch between files they are working on easily.  However there are times when developers need to compare two files at the same time.  Using Tabbed Groups developers can view files vertically or horizontally.  There is also the ctrl-tab feature which allows developers to quickly switch between files they have open.  Here is a video that shows how this is done.  (the video is below, requires Silverlight)

Baby Elder

Parents love to take pictures of their children.  My Mother and Father were no exception.  There is one baby picture that easily sums me up as a person and predicted future roles in my life.  I happened to come across that baby picture this morning while cleaning up some files.  I hadn't ever paid that much attention to it but it speaks volumes to me now that I'm older.  Throughout my life I have been a performing artist, singer, speaker, and actor.  I think this picture really shows even at a young age I was already showing signs of my extraverted personality and destined to be on American Idol but was born 5 years too early.  If nothing else it is a cute picture.
