Beebe's Stuff

Well this is my last day here in Denver, I am kinda sad to leave as this is a beautiful city, but at the same time I am excited to go home and see my lovely wife. We, My Boss and I, have a morning of conferences then we catch a plane to Detroit. That aught to be fun. I picked up a set of Noise canceling headphones for the plane so we will see how those work.

It is just about time for some breakfast and check out. So I must be off.

I love the sound of the rain in the trees. I am just sitting here on the couch surfing the web in the pouring down rain.

I am attending the 14th Annual IUG conference for Innovative Interfaces , this is the company that provides the software that runs the library where I work. While here I have heard a lot of talk about bringing the library into the Web 2.0 setting and have found most of it very interesting. There are a ton of great sources and good people behind this push in the IUG, it has renewed my interest in the web and development. So in that vein I am going to try again at keeping this blog rolling with a post at a bare minimum once per week. In fact I am going to schedule it into my calendar. I may even try to get a domain for it so that will be some more incentive for me to update regularly.

Create a SHA1 hash of a string

This function will take a string and return the hashed value using System.Security.Cryptography; public static string GetSha1(string value) { var data = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(value); var hashData = new SHA1Managed().ComputeHash(data); var hash = string.Empty; foreach (var b in hashData) hash += b.ToString("X2"); return hash; } Thanks to Lars-Erik
