Last and first day of the week

In a project I had to find out if a specific date was the first or last day of the week. Also, here in Norway we have Monday as the first day of the week, but in USA they use Sunday. I wanted my code to support this as well.

AppShopper

If you have a iOS device, this is a fantastic site! You can see the apps that dropped in price, got an update or find new applications. I have created an account, and can add programs that I want to a wish list, and get an alert if it drops in price. At the same time I have added RSS feeds for new free apps and apps that drop in price. That way I get some of the apps I want cheap and discover new interesting apps. I hope to post some of my discovered apps on this webpage, as I find some really good apps.

LINQPad

I discovered this tool a long time ago, but did not find it that useful, since I already is able to write LINQ to SQL queries in Visual Studio. Even in the Express Editions of Visual Studio I am able to write them with intellisense, something you have to pay for when using LINQPad. But recently a colleague showed me some more features that made me buy it.
