BackgroundWorker class
This .NET 2.0 new class is one of the most usefull class in .NET 2.0 threading class library. This simplifies creating a new background thread from your WinForm application. Here you can safely update the GUI control without marshalling and it also provide you with built in cancellation method.
A good article about this class is available here. Don't I wish that this class is available in .NET 1.x, this would have saved me heaps of ground work in GUI projects.

New photo gallery
Phew after four months on the road, I finally have a bit of time to do some website maintenance. First thing first is to migrate all my photos into the new Coppermine based gallery. I installed Coppermine just before I left for my trip, it is pretty powerful and customisable engine.
So migrated the photos, added the Creative Commons copyright and that's pretty much it. I still need to tweak bits and pieces of it, but I'm quite pleased that it's been working really well. This is my third attempt at online photo album heh, hopefully this Coppermine will stay for a while.
