New blood at Atalasoft
But if I kill all the golfers, they're gonna lock me up and throw away the key...
So we've hired a handful of new people here at Atalasoft, including a new Developer Support Engineer (everyone, wave to Kevin). Kevin has got some mad skills, and will soon be up to speed with DotImage and DotTwain. He's already answering the phones -- give him a warm welcome if you speak to him.
Speaking of mad skills, there are two I do *not* possess -- the ability to speak Spanish and the ability to write code in VB as fast as I write C#. For those two items, I use these:

http://labs.developerfusion.co.uk/
Often, when I need to give a code sample to a customer, I send it off to them in C#, without knowing what they're using. This allows me to get the information across faster and more accurately. The Code Converters by Developer Fusion can translate both directions between VB and C#.
As for the Spanish, well, Dad told me to study it in school, but I didn't listen. Unfortunately, we do not have anyone here who does speak Spanish, but I can type pretty fast into Babelfish.
So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
Those of you at Code Camp in Boston this weekend, see you there.
