In Duesseldorf, in limbo...

Well I have been in Duesseldorf for 4 weeks now, things are moving a little slowly, we only just got into an apartment and are still sleeping on an airbed! My desktop has arrived but I'm still waiting on the sea shipment for a desk, that and no internet connection yet means development work is on hold. Still, plenty of DIY to be done in the new place, and this city to explore, great place so far!

Just a couple of weeks left now before the move, with most of my time being used with leaving parties, packing, and paperwork! I managed to crank out an update for Metero that will catch a crash that seemed to be happening on some phones. Going to give up on Microsoft's advertising products as they seems to just plain unreliable, a bit sad that Google do Windows Phone advertising better than Microsoft, but hey ho, I will send my feedback and let them know.
I doubt I will have another chance to update before we leave, although I do have a few articles in draft state that I am saving for a few more revisions.
See you in Düsseldorf!

Happy New Year! It's been a busy time lately with organising the relocation from Hong Kong to Düsseldorf, not long to go now, but I have managed to get the first app out of the door, certified first time. I need to do a bit of work on the presentation in the Windows Phone Store, but at least I'm now familiar with the process. Onwards to the next project :)

BizSpark, Site Updates, Moving Dates!

Acceptance into BizSpark came through today, so I've been able to update my tools to Visual Studio 2013 and have a play around and get familiar. A lot of small UI changes that make working with hosted TFS a bit more straightforward, although I'm still struggling with being able to automate unit test execution on the hosted build engine! Guess I can live with local unit testing for now.
I've spent a good few hours tinkering with the CMS and knocking up a logo that will do for the present, tweaked some CSS etc, and have been testing out a few different interface controls on Metero to get that ready for submission. Long day.
Finally though, we have a date for the big move from Hong Kong to Düsseldorf, we'll be on a plane the second week of February 2014. Can't wait to get there and get started full time :)
