Nesting Files in Visual Studio

Found a neat extension for Visual Studio that allows you to nest files in the solution explorer. NestIn written by José F. Romaniello, allows you to easily and quickly nest files from the context menu. I have found this very useful when grouping related resources to their parent files (like javascript to the parent user control).

Ice Cream Sandwich to Mac File Transfer

So I recently updated my Samsung Galaxy S II and found that I could no longer connect it to my OSX Lion Mac. As it turns out, ICS now uses the MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) protocol which OSX does not support. Up until now, it has use the UMS (USB Mass Storage) protocol. Though this move is a step forward, it can be a bit confusing. Luckily, there’s a free fix from google. Android File Transfer is a free application that mac users can install to get MTP support on their Mac computer and continue to manage their files.

Android File Transfer is an application for Macintosh computers (running Mac OS X 10.5 or later) you can use to view and transfer files between your Mac and an Android device (running Android 3.0 or later).

Even though Android phones are a direct competitor to Apple’s iPhone, hopefully Apple will smarten up in the near future and build this in to their operating system. There are many other devices that use this protocol and to not include it would be plain silly.
