Another Body Blow For Freedom Of Speech

Published Wednesday, October 18, 2006 10:46 AM

I need to apologise because we've had to disable anonymous comments on my blog due to the fact that for some reason this post in particular seems to be attracting an inordinate amount of spam advertising various "exotic" items, websites and services. Guess it must be my kinky porn star name... either that or the word "prong" gets those nettlesome spam-bots all excited.

Anyway, in the exceptionally unlikely event that you did want to comment you can still do so but you'll need to be a registered Simple Talk user.

About Bart Read

Bart has done many things since he started work at Red Gate Software Ltd in August 2004, but nowadays he's (mainly) the product manager for the .NET Developer Tools. He still feels like this is a bit like admitting you were cheering for the Empire whilst watching Star Wars, but for now he's along for the ride. In a previous incarnation he was a project manager leading the .NET Reflector Pro, ANTS Memory Profiler 5, ANTS Performance Profiler 4 & 5, and SQL Prompt 3.0 - 3.6 projects. He still occasionally writes some code and, in the past, has touched the code for most of the Red Gate SQL developer tools... some of them still haven't recovered from the shock. He was born and grew up in Dorset, was educated in Nottingham and London, and likes music and real ale. His photo is extremely misleading.
