Ticketing for the Masses?
Earlier this year, Virtual Box Office launched, bringing free ticketing solutions to the masses! Free, we hear you ask? As always there is a small disclaimer, but for semi-professional, amateur and not-for-profit organisations, it is completely free.

Small Basic - Part 1
Looks like Microsoft may be taking a page out of their old DOS book, and encouraging younger computer enthusiast to get into programming.
Small Basic v0.7 was released somewhat recently, however I only found out about it late last week. Instantly upon writing my first Hello World program in Small Basic it reminded me of playing with QBasic back in they day. I mean, it's not an ugly DOS interface or anything. In fact, it's a really nice looking environment so far. That being said, it's still in early development so the IDE isn't exactly the most functional.
