I’ve recently started my journey as a Pluralsight author and, as is know surprise, I’m spending a lot of time getting my tools set up. Regardless of what video editing tool you use, you need to record both screens and voice. I believe most video authors at Pluralsight have a dedicated monitor running at 1024x768. They simply record this windows. Unfortunately for me, that does not work so well because I’m doing all my work on a MacBook Pro with just two external monitors (neither of which run correctly at 1024x768).

I started at 7AM today as a volunteer at the HTML5 Developer Conference in San Francisco.

December 30, 2012 By 2 Comments
Background There are quite a few articles written on the differences between WSP’s and WAP’s. In this article, I will not go into the details but just give you some clean mechanics necessary for converting pages using Visual Studio 2012. Some of those articles are listed below. http://mitchelsellers.com/blogs/2008/01/02/wap-or-wsp-which-to-use-and-why.aspx http://vishaljoshi.blogspot.com/2009/08/web-application-project-vs-web-site.html http://aspnetresources.com/blog/web_site_vs_web_application_project_wap When I was new to Visual Studio, I did choose WSP projects because it seemed easier.
