Yes I feel the love.
Actually I think that just shows how much interest there is in this subject. Everybody has to have one.

I was wondering if you could implement a new functionality to the lounge. I would like some way of filtering to specific days. Some days have a great topics, but if I am gone for a few days I have to hit the next link until I get there. Searching for keywords doesn't help many times becuase the topics change and I obviously don't know the titles of the new threads. If you could implement something like that in a calender control it would be great.
<marquee style="filter:blur(Add=1, Direction=90, Strength=4)">I Microsoft

Maybe in Lounge .NET. It's definitely a worthwhile feature.

I was wondering if you could add a new section for assembly code for other platforms. The reason is, in my old Atari ST coding days I put together an entire game/editor in assembly code. Instead of seeing the code being lost forever, I could post it as an artical in this kind of area so that it may be of some use to someone in the future.
It would also allow people to run it in an ST emulator if they had one.
Any comments?

Chris, here is an idea for a new poll.
What size monitors do you use?
(a) 14"
(b) 15"
(c) 17"
(d) Bigger than 17"
(e) It doesn't matter
(f) It does matter. I wish I had a bigger monitor

The discussion boards, Lounge in particular, are a great place for expressing* your opinion.
The articles are a great way of teaching both yourself and others as well as showing a bit of real coding skill**.
But IMHO there is a gap which "talented" coders cum writers could fill on CP. That is the gap of a regular (weekly, monthly etc.), official column or two. I spend far too much time on CP but I find I must go elsewhere to read about future trends and the general opinion of the industry. Places like ZDNet, CNet, PCMag etc.
I am not talking about another slashdot look alike here at all, but something with a "real" writer expressing their opinions on the industry in a regular manner. Something a bit like the I Cringely (though less "damn the rest of the world" and less personalised, that guy is going to be assasinated one day!)
So what do you think?
And to answer the first response to this post: I would gladly do it but seeing as I am hardly a C++ lover a regular column by me would probably bore the hell out of you. I would focus on the web, the future of computing etc.
* I say "expressing" with a modicum of irony. Express tends to mean there has been some careful, rational thought behind what you say...
** I knew there was a reason I have only written one article, and that not highly hardcore at all

You mean something like:-
Mike's Shell Corner weekly
or
Christian's GDI+ tips [bi-weekly]
or
Colin's tips to market your software [half-hourly]

Yeah kinda like that Nish. Though I don't want them to become a "Colin writes a column for CP so he is better than the rest" advert.
Not sure how we could prevent that without having everyone write a column, but there must be a way.

I dont think anyone would mind if Mike or Christian started writing regular colomns. I mean they are accepted as experts in their fields, arent they?

Wouldn't it be nice if clicking on the message subject that you have open at the moment would close (hide) the message body. It is not terribly important, but sometimes message bodies are very long and when I open it by mistake (I've read it already or something) my first intention is to click on the message subject again to close it. That way I will be able to click on the next message without scrolling 3 pages down.
I hope it makes sense and I want to repeat again that it is not at all important - just something to add to the endless "when we have nothing else to do" list.
Thank you.

I am sure he is. What is "Da Bosh" though? ![Blush | :O](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/smiley_redface.gif)

"Da Bosh" is what I fancy to be Carribean pronounciation for "The Boss"

Hey Chris, just an idea but I would appreciate some kind of "link back" image for CP so that I, and others, can link to CP from my site (it's rather crappy site at the moment yes...). A normal link just does not do justice to CP
Checkout the Blogger or Independants Day buttons to see what I mean.
I am sure Bob would look very cool on a link button

Hi Chris
In the articles page it'd be nice if you can put something like "this zip has been downloaded N times"

I second that!
Also Chris with this mechanism in place you will know who to charge for extra bandwidth costs

Uh oh. I never thought of that dangerous side-effect. I guess someone like Mike will suffer most.
