Take all these ideas, choose a couple, make the application , but make it less then basic, don't take the most basic route, think of ideas to make these ideas better, apply them and release.

I'll take the RSS feeder. I'll post the source here in a few minutes (if I can code it that fast)

EDIT: WOOPS, forgot to start...

Commenced coding at 9:33PM my time. Let's do dis.

Done @ 9:56 my time (took a few mins to upload etc.

Code:

            Dim last As Integer = str.IndexOf(pt2, first)
            Dim subStr As String = str.Substring(first, last - first)

Pig Latin converter:

[highlight=vb.net]
Private Function ConvertToPL(ByVal word As String) As String
Dim firstLetter As String = word.Substring(0, 1).ToLower
word = StrConv(word.Substring(1), VbStrConv.ProperCase) & firstLetter & "ay"
Return word
End Function

Private Function ConvertFromPL(ByVal word As String) As String
Dim firstLetter As String = word.Substring(word.Length - 3, 1).ToUpper
word = firstLetter & word.Substring(0, word.Length - 3).ToLower
Return word
End Function

Pig latin is not JUST the first letter, It's the first Consinents (SpellCheck) until the vowel, then it's put on the back. So train becomes aintray. At least that's how we do it in my area.

He's right.

To form the Pig Latin form of an English word the first consonant (or consonant cluster) is moved to the end of the word and an ay is affixed (for example, pig yields ig-pay and computer yields omputer-cay).

Wut Evar. Pig latin fanboys

I'll fix it later, going out soon!
