About the Developer Center

The Developer Center is a consolidation of a number of previous sites maintained by Eric Smith to support various books and web sites:

  • Northstar Navigator
  • ASP Techniques
  • VB Techniques
  • Articles published at DevX.com
  • Tips/articles published at TipWorld/Topica
  • ASP Weekend Crash Course - published by Wiley Computer Publishing
  • ASP Bible - published by Wiley Computer Publishing
  • VB 6.0 Bible - published by Wiley Computer Publishing
  • ASP.NET at Work - published by Wiley Computer Publishing

The purpose of the new site is to provide me a good platform for adding new content but still maintaining the useful tips and articles that many of you may have used over the years.

Product and Book Reviews

To help provide our users the best content, we accept both books and products for review. Depending on the book or product, it may be available on all of the sites where the technology is appropriate. If you'd like to have a book or product reviewed on the site, you can send it to this address:

The Fine Print

Unfortunately, the overabundance of lawyers and lawsuits means that even we have to provide a user agreement for this site.
