Creating an ASP.NET MVC application with Google Gears

Mon, 23 Feb 2009 19:31:08 GMT

You probably have been working with Gmail or Google Docs. One of the features with those web applications is that they provide an "offline mode", which allows you to access your e-mail and documents locally, when an Internet connection is not available. When a connection is available, those items are synchronized between your PC and the application server. This offline functionality is built using JavaScript and a Google product called Google Gears. In this blog post, I will be building a simple notebook application using the ASP.NET MVC framework, and afterwards make it available to be used offline.

Turn Google App Engine into your own Personal Content Delivery Network

Fri, 13 Jun 2008 02:01:03 GMT

As anybody who has run a growing website or blog knows, response time is going to get worse with the more users you have visiting your site. The users come from all angles, RSS feeds, homepage visits, search engine visits, people sealing your static files that you host, and pretty much anything else that can be served over HTTP. The solution to this problem is to off load your static content on to a Content Delivery Network or CDN. CDN providers cost a lot of money though, so it is nothing for us mere mortals with one server can afford. But thanks to Google anyone can now run their own CDN for free on Googles servers. Lucky for you and me Google has made the process really painless and you can even have the CDN under you own domain name. In my case static.coderjournal.com.
