Hello, world
One of the pleasures of working through the holidays, when few people are in the office, is to do tasks that I've been meaning to do for a long time. So while the halls are virtually empty during this holiday week, I'm happy to start my blog and add my name to the long list of C# bloggers (https://msdn.microsoft.com/vcsharp/team/blogs).
To get things started, I thought it would be useful for me to provide a brief bio. My name is Scott Wiltamuth, and I’m the Product Unit Manager for Visual C#. My group's mission is to grow a large and highly satisfied base of C# developers. We have feature teams for the C# Compiler, CodeSense (meaning code-focused development features like IntelliSense, refactoring, automatic code formatting, expansions, etc.) and the Debugger (which we deliver as a shared component for Visual Studio -- it supports lots of languages, not just C#).
I've been at Microsoft since February 1993. I started shortly after graduating from Stanford (BS in CS in '91, MS in CS in '92). I have worked on a wide range of development tools, including OLE Automation, Visual Basic for Applications, VBScript, JScript, Visual J++, and Visual C#. I've worked on C# since its inception, and am one of the designers of the C# language. (Anders Hejlsberg is the Chief Designer of the language.)
On the personal side, I have a great family, including my wife Martha, my daughter Mimi (almost 5), and my son Ian (2 1/2). In my spare time, I’m an avid triathlete and golfer. (I'm no superman -- I don't have time to do both of these time-consuming sports justice, though I do try.)

streetwhispers asks above about starting a blog. There are lots of ways to do this, particularly if you managed your own server, but the easiest way to get going is to start with a hosted service like Microsoft's http://spaces.msn.com.

Berkeley DB Java Edition 1.5.0 Released ... Kung-Log and JRoller Native desktop apps interacting with native server apps is the way to go. This week I figured I would try some of the weblog tools available on Mac OS X. Today the tool of choice is Kung-Log. It looks pretty sweet. Unfortunately, unlike NNW, I am unable to edit posts once they are on the server. Hmm... - Anonymous
