NameSpaces for Web Services

-
Namespace assignment for Web Service proxies is not the most intuitive thing in the world since it's usually auto-generated. By default, the namespace is the name of the project dot name of the WebService.

Here's a little tip that I use when I can't get it right the first time: Go into the client project's Web References directory, the directory for your Web Service and open the generated proxy file (WebService.cs). At the very top you'll find the fully qualified namespace for the Web Service proxy which is what you need in order to access the Web Service methods from your code. You can either type the fully qualified namespace path plus the class name each time you create a reference to the object or you can add it to your namespace references at the top of the class.

Another hint – try to name your namespaces consistently. Avoid using the same name for a namespace and a class. When you create a project, create all client code in the scope of that namespace so other modules can reference each other by their specific single namespace name.

Thats nice, but do we really need to bother about a namespace for a web service proxy? I personally think it should be placed in the AppCode folder, there will be no issues in accessing it anywhere.

Microsoft Surface in brief

-
After years of covert development, Microsoft says it will release a computer that uses the tabletop as its high-resolution display, recognizes objects placed on the surface and skips the traditional keyboard and mouse in favor of fingers on the screen. What it is : A computer in the form of a table, using the hard acrylic tabletop as a high-resolution screen. First product from Microsoft's previously secret Surface Computing team, which has 120 employees. How it works : The surface itself isn't touch-sensitive, but a series of cameras inside the table can see when someone places or drags a finger, hand or any other object on or across the tabletop screen. Internal projector lights screen from beneath. Interface : People can use their hands to touch and move virtual objects on the screen, just as they would with a mouse on a traditional PC. The system also can recognize objects placed on the surface, based on their shape or on special codes affixed to them.Size: 22 inches high,
