Microsoft opened CodePlex, a community-based code sharing site, to the public. The site will allow software developers to view source code of several Microsoft products and even post their own to the site. This move is another adjustment that Microsoft is making after an outcry for more "open" policy by software developers. The site is planned to have better interaction between Microsoft employees and other software developers.

Welcome!

This is my writing depository containing analysis and opinion on current events. Online since 2004, DS NETS continues to strive to contribute to the general online discussion on the ongoing political, societal, and cultural events around the world and at home.

It is my belief that through good writing that not only I can think beyond the headlines and abstract summary of articles but also my writings can open new avenues for further research and discussions.

In order to maximize capability among visitors, this website does not depend on bloated javascript and other code to display the content to the audience. There are no external advertisements, and the website is relatively lightweight for the web browser of all kinds.

The website design was done by scratch (by me), and readability of the content, as well as the aesthetics, was the focus of the design.

Hopefully, the lightweight nature of the website can make the browsing experience more pleasant.
