Being home from work with a stomach bug today I was thinking on how I can be more effective in what I do. One thing that popped to mind is how often in a work day I lose track of what I’m doing just because I remember something else I have to do. When the idea pops up I go off to outlook navigate to the right place, add a task… And boom, my mind is way off track. So my thought was “how do I shorten the interruption so that it does not derail my train of thought”?...
Ever did a nice little console applications that does something smart and you’re satisfied with what it does but it’s kinda irritating that it steals focus and flickers by the screen during execution. Could be something like the GUID generator I wrote a while back, described in my post: Creating GUID’s. So here the simple solution: In Visual Studio 2008, right-click the project Choose Properties… Change Output type from Console Application to Windows Application. Done.
