Announcing The Code Wiki

I'm excited to announce the release of The Code Wiki - a learning tool to help teach fundamental programming practices. The Code Wiki is both a web-based sample application as well as a completely free eBook.

I'm going after, what I think, is one of the largest .NET audiences out there which also happens to be the worst targeted by tech books. This isn't a reference book like the countless others out there, and it isn't a super-advanced book either. It's squarely aimed at developers who know how to code, but want to learn how to better design their code. I shudder when I hear the word "architect", but I'll use it this one time.

I'm also hopeful that The Code Wiki might be useful for authors/presenters who need a sample application to write/talk about. For example, The Code Wiki doesn't use an O/R Mapper, and there's nothing I'd like to see more than someone writing an article on how to make The Code Wiki leverage NHibernate (or something). (don't worry, if one isn't written by the time I get to it, I do plan on writing one myself).
