And the Award goes to .Net 3.5!

A few weeks ago I made a post containing reasons to choose .NET 3.5 over 2.0 for new projects and I just heard this week that we will get to use 3.5. Yay!

To me this was a no-brainer if only for the simple fact that we are redeveloping a coldfusion app into .NET; so we might as well use the latest and greatest framework out there, right? Well, not everyone thought so but this post help convince some people to let us go ahead.

We are still in the requirements and design phase so I haven’t gotten to play around with it much but I’m looking forward to it. I just bought 3 .NET books and one agile development book (new to agile dev) and they should be here tomorrow. It’s Christmas early!

Can anyone recommend any good books on 3.5, SQLServer 2008, or Agile Development?
