On Friday, July 17, I finished the Cascade Crest 100 in 33:08:47.

Most of us set up our home networks once and never touch them again.

I’m sitting here writing this post while drinking my coffee on Sunday, nursing some sore toes and legs, but fired up from what was a really fun race.

Some races are circled on the calendar months in advance.

I didn’t write much about my training the last year, and I regret it.

I’ve been a gamer my whole life.

For me, learning is a lifelong endeavor, and that’s certainly true when it comes to ultrarunning.

I never thought I’d be writing this blog post, yet here I am.

This week I had the opportunity to demo how developers can combine project-based app development with Salesforce DX, the Salesforce CLI, Scratch Orgs, and the Mobile SDK to make – at least, in my humble opinion – a pretty compelling native app dev experie…

A different, if not more accurate or better, name for this blog post could be “Authenticate to a Scratch Org You Didn’t Create and Whose Password You Don’t Know.”

As you’ve likely seen on Twitter, I’ve really gotten into Trailhead these past few months.

If you’re a Salesforce developer, it’s likely you’ve heard us talk about Salesforce DX these past months.

The Salesforce Workbench is a powerful set of tools for developers and admins to use with their org.

Using the capabilities of Salesforce DX you can enable some neat tricks.

The Salesforce DX (SFDX) CLI makes it easy to run commands as a developer.

This post is valid for the Salesforce DX (SFDX) pilot.

Like many people at Salesforce and in the community, I was really excited and impressed to see Lightning Strike by Appiphony.

We’re so excited to have recently launched the Salesforce DX pilot.

The New Year is a good time to set goals for yourself.

A few weeks ago I wrote a GoLang web app and wanted to find a good place to host it.

I’ve had to do this more than once recently, so I figured I’d document the simple steps for setting up the Go programming language on Windows.

Microsoft Project Siena (Beta) is a tool that allows a business user (i.e. non-developer) to quickly building rich business applications for Windows 8.

iBeacon is the Apple trademark for a low-powered, low-cost transmitter that can notify nearby iOS 7 devices of its presence.

I had the great pleasure this week to speak at TechEd North America 2014 on how we built the Salesforce Toolkits for .NET.

Earlier today a colleague asked me if I had an example of using Python to create an attachment in Salesforce.

It’s time to take a little break from .NET and enjoy the many different programming languages you can use when integrating to the Salesforce1 Platform.

Yesterday I was pleased to announce the Salesforce Accelerators for Windows Phone 8 Apps.

I am pleased to announce the Salesforce Accelerators for Windows Phone 8 Apps, a set of assets designed to make it easier to create new applications using the Salesforce Toolkits for .NET: DeveloperForce.WindowsPhone8.Login DeveloperForce.WindowsPhone8.Sa…

Update 2/24/14 Over the weekend I took much of what I wrote below and packaged it up in a NuGet package.

How do you send a text message from your phone and have it print on a thermal printer that’s sitting on your kitchen counter?

Over the past two days I’ve committed and published a number of updates to the Salesforce Toolkits for .NET worth sharing.

Two days ago I published a sample app for Windows Phone 8 that demonstrates how to authenticate users and make calls against the Force.com REST API using the Salesforce Toolkits for .NET.

One of the top requests I’ve received since releasing the Salesforce Toolkits for .NET has been a Windows Phone 8 sample application.

If you follow me on Twitter, chances are you heard we released a set of Salesforce Toolkits for .NET last week.

I am extremely pleased to announce the availability of two Salesforce Toolkits for .NET developers: the Force.com Toolkit for .NET and the Chatter Toolkit for .NET.

I’ve been building a set of libraries recently that make HTTP calls into the Force.com and Chatter REST APIs and I needed to find a way to test my methods and ensure that my HTTP Requests were constructed correctly.

We just released a Salesforce1 tutorial on Github that walks you though the same demo presented by Dave Carroll at the Dreamforce ‘13 Developer’s Keynote.

Yesterday I spent some time writing a Python token request script against the Force.com APIs.

Today I wrote some Python code for querying the Force.com REST APIs.

Released this week at Dreamforce is a new command-line interface (CLI) tool for Force.com.

Earlier this year I started an incubation project at Aditi Technologies to explore Salesforce as a platform for building cloud applications.

Today I needed to configure Eclipse to use the Force.COM IDE.

Special thanks to Michael Washam for helping me find and fix a bug in my code!

For quite some time I’ve wanted to move my blog off WordPress and start to use Jekyll - in fact, I started looking into Jekyll back when I was still at Microsoft and had many conversations with Steve Marx about making the move.

The Force.com REST API lets you integration with Force.com applications using standard HTTP methods.

Today I got the opportunity to attend a Salesforce.com “hack day” in San Francisco.

One of my goals this past year has been to get more hands-on with respects to real-world cloud applications.

Lately I’ve been attempting to try out a number of different techniques for publishing web applications – both websites and web APIs – to the cloud.

Yesterday Windows Azure experienced a worldwide disruption in many services due to an expired PKI certificate for Windows Azure storage.
