I had a need to connect to the Reddit API via C# .NET, and thought I'd put this little tutorial together since most I found were in java or python. Note: General Reddit OAuth API info:  https://www.reddit.com/dev/api/oauth 1. Go here and make an app:  https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps 2. Use the values from the app you created above, in this code sample:   gist:  https://gist.github.com/aaronhoffman/b59585d507601b05d8db02493eaaf73e   more info:  https://github.com/reddit/reddit/wiki/OAuth2 3.

Using VirtualBox on my Mac (in windowed mode, not full screen), I noticed that right-click on the Windows taskbar was not working. I commonly use right-click on the task bar to launch an application as administrator, pin an application to the taskbar, etc. I could two-finger click on other windows to get the right-click menu to appear, but that did not work on the taskbar. To get the right-click menu to appear on the windows taskbar, I had to hold down the "host key" which for me was the left Mac command key, and single-finger click the item in the taskbar. Hope this helps! Aaron

AKA (for google-fu): asp.net mvc 5 web site administration tool asp.net mvc 5 web configuration tool asp.net mvc 5 identity asp.net mvc 5 membership I have missed the asp.net Web Site Administration Tool that used to be included with Visual Studio. I created an alternative for asp.net mvc 4 you can find here . For asp.net mvc 5, I created an  Azure Site Extension  to provide the same functionality. It can be run from VS on your local machine as well as installed as a site extension on Azure.
