I’ve learnt some new terms and terminologies in last night feed reading.

I got this new term from Korby’s Blog called: VSS Shadow Folder which I’ll be doing further research later.

Shadow Folder: is a read only copy of the tip version of all files in a given VSS project folder. It’s regularly updated.

Read a very resourceful article on Code Smells from Coding Horrors. Tell the truth, I have never heard of the usage “Code Smells” or “Refactoring” or “Coding Nose” before. Very interesting read and some good links to follow to. If you’re a programmer, you should definitely check it out.

Code Smells:
- is a jargon term used among programmers to refer to a symptom that indicates something may be wrong.
- watch for warning signs in your own code
- indicates that code should be refactored or the overall design should be reexamined.

Refactoring: is the process of rewriting a computer program or other material to improve its structure or readability while explicitly preserving.

Most intriguing (sometime annoying) thing about blogosphere feed reading is that, you got links after links from one post to another. You keep going and will never stop. One post references a few links and from those links you got some more links and on and on….You got to know where to stop and say, hey that’s enough, I don’t want to know anymore. Haha.
