Good ASP.Net blogs?

March 14, 2008 9:46 AM

What should I be reading? I'm an ASP.Net / SQL developer.

So here's the deal. I work as a developer doing ASP.Net web apps, a mix of CRM type systems and public-facing sites. (There's a smattering of ASP legacy applications and VB.Net Windows apps, but mostly modern ASP.Net.) I'm interested in reading blogs and / or regularly updated sites that talk about things we could be doing better. This could include ASP.Net, general web development, web design, databases etc. Any good recommendations?

Coding Horror isn't .NET specific but worth a read.

If you don't mind "drinking from the fireshose", then the combined feed at http://weblogs.asp.net is a great resource. It's far too much for me to keep up with, so I just cherry-pick from the feed from time to time. I've found some great stuff, and I've subscribed to several of the indivdual feeds after reading their posts in that feed.
