Microsoft .NET Online Resources

A key aspect of the evolution of the .NET platform has been the strong community support behind it. Some of the online resources, which I highly recommend to occupy key positions in your bookmarks, are

• Official Developers Home Page for .NET

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/net

• .NET Architecture Center

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/architecture/

• Visual Studio .NET

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio

• Microsoft Office

  http://www.microsoft.com/office/

• Microsoft Windows Server System

  http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/

• Microsoft .NET Framework Community

  http://www.gotdotnet.com/

• Google Directory ”.NET

  http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Programming/Component_Frameworks/NET

Hopefully, the introduction has geared you enough for a challenging journey ahead. While you are in this exciting journey of understanding and applying .NET, please be sure to email any comments, suggestions, or problems to me, Hitesh Seth, at [e-mail]. I want to make sure this book stays at the top of the field, and I'll implement your suggestions in future editions.
