A different programming ASPECT
There are so many interesting facets to the software development industry! One “aspect” (pun intended, read on . . . ) of the industry I've been working to follow is Aspect Orientated Software Development (AOSD) and what problems I can solve through an aspected oriented approach. Here is a good reading list compiled by a bright Aspected Oriented thinker, Jason Furlong, http://www.cs.queensu.ca/~stl/pdf/AOSD_handout.pdf; admittedly, some of it's a bit academic and heady, but isn't that often the good stuff?! If your tired of the beginner articles about ASP.Net validation controls or which managed ADO.Net data provider to choose, check out Furlong's list.
If you start really getting into AOSD, check out the discussions at http://aosd.net/mailman/listinfo/discuss!
Happy .Netting!
