This is quite an old blog, 3 or 4 years old actually, so the design, the highlighting... it's all dated.
I am currently working on a new blog which will be hosted over at my personal website, which will be much fancier and easier to use, interact and read from. Everything will be migrated over with links preserved though.
Update: new blog is now live over at http://www.adamkdean.co.uk and the highlighting is much nicer!

Visual Studio Tools for Git
Visual Studio now has an extension to let you work with Git right from within Visual Studio. It looks pretty awesome and I can't wait to try it out. Once I get it to work.
