Coding4Fun Article Ideas

If you visit my site, you're likely here because of an article I wrote on Microsoft's Coding4Fun site.  Or perhaps someone doesn't like you and punished you with a link to my blog.  Assuming the former, I am continuing to write articles on topics that are fun and/or interesting for me, but I wonder what the readers find fun and/or interesting.  So, with that in mind, do you have ideas for a future article?

If you have any ideas, I'd love to hear about them!  Please feel free to leave ideas as a comment on this article, a post in this general forum thread (easier for discussion), or contact me directly.  Coding4Fun is a Microsoft site that is geared toward development in .NET using the free Visual Studio Express products, so please keep that in mind when offering suggestions.

I look forward to hearing what you readers would like to learn about.

Thanks!

Robotics is fun, and especially using robotics studio.

I'd love to see a sample integrating the MSRS, WiiMote, Video and NXT ... everything is in your articles and we only need to aggregate it but you have a great creativity and you will be able to make a fun sample :)

Another idea, integrating dreamcheeky missile launcher with a vision library (like volts-iq) to detect people or objects and fire missile on them ... it would be fun :)

Regards,

Cedric

I hadn't seen VOLTS-IQ before.  I'll definitely be exploring that avenue for an article.

Great suggestions.  I'll see what I can come up with. Thanks!
