Did you see the Shortcut Poster for Visual Studio? It fits nicely on a Din A4-paper (ok, you should have sharp eyes) and it lays now in front of my monitor. For example, do you know CTRL-Tab? Browsing open documents inside VS. Or CTRL-K, CTRL-C: comment the selected lines. Veeeery helpful!
And now finally I'm cool: I use a theme for my Visual Studio. I wanted to try a black background and ended up on the VibrantInk-theme. I use it for about 3 days and I think it's great :)

What Great .NET Developers Ought To Know
Recently I browsed a bit in Scott Hanselman's Computer Zen and found a blog-entry reading What Great .NET Developers Ought To Know. I think this is a fine place to start knowing what you don't know (yet).
Also look at BabySmash! by Scott Hanselman - a great introduction to WPF and the way to it.

Happy new Year, OpenXDF and Compression
We're looking for a better and smarter way to save our data. We discovered the OpenXDF-format which just turned to version 1. The quintessence of the format for me is the differenciation of the signal data, the video data and the rest. So you can use ISerializable to easily serialize all the data (events, patient data, etc.). OpenXDF proposes to add all the files to a compressed file.
In .net, you can use System.IO.Compression to compress a file but you need extra work to handle files like in a zip archive (see the Compression Application Sample for how to do that).
