"Admin Script Editor provides a true integrated scripting environment for PowerShell. Advanced features include an integrated PowerShell debugger, advanced code generating tools for Active Directory, Databases, XML files and the exclusive PowerShell forms designer. Come see for yourself-- Admin Script Editor v3.5 is availble for a 45 day trial at AdminScriptEditor.com."
- Preview video up of a very interesting new open-source project called PoshBoard. It's a solid clone of iGoogle, including the AJAX widgets, but the widgets are...PowerShell code!
- And we have more videos. Marco Shaw has posted the videos from PS VUG meeting #6.
- We're really excited about PoshCode.org. This is a new domain but an old resource with a bit of a facelift and some new features. This is the same script repository back end featured at PowerShellCommunity.org and PowerShellCentral.com. Joel Bennett is adding features to make this a very useful tool.
