Best C# Blogs(强烈推荐)
What makes a C# blog good? Pretty much the same thing that makes any blog good, but with a focus on C#, of course. Good C# blogs have:
- Useful news, information, tips and code samples
- Regular updates
- Original content, not a splog or news feed
- Good organization, including categories and tags
- Healthy discussion and user comments
- Personal insight and humor, but not too much personal drivel
Following are the some of best C# blogs active on the Web today. Also included is the "About" section of the blog (edited for space and clarity) and a link to a recent interesting post. Please comment if you can recommend other excellent C# blogs that didn't make my list.

Developing for .NET
Home of Joel Cochran and Jim Burnett. The reality of .NET is that with the thousands of classes available, there is simply too much to know.

Topics will be simple solutions to common problems, some of them will be cries for help themselves. In either case, everything posted here will be from Joel and Jim's real world experiences.
