An Important Update on MSDN Magazine and this forum

Question

After more than three decades providing technical guidance to the community of Microsoft developers, MSDN Magazine published its last issue in November. All previous issues will be archived and available online. This forum will soon shut down. 

MSDN Magazine originally started as two separate magazines, Microsoft Systems Journal and Microsoft Internet Developer, which consolidated into MSDN Magazine in 2000. Our first issue that year was entirely devoted to the Windows operating environment. How far have we all come since then? As Microsoft products and services expanded exponentially over the years, MSDN Magazine has gone through its own evolution, as well. We realized that it is time to retire MSDN Magazine and to carry on its work through Web channels like docs.microsoft.com.

Subscribers of MSDN Magazine who have paid for their subscriptions will receive a pro-rated refund, based on time remaining on their subscription. The refund checks will be mailed out to those subscribers after the November issue has published. For other refund questions, please contact 1105 Media:

This is really a pity. I really like consolidated information that MSDN magazine offered. This is not comparable to all listed resources you gave ... There is just too much info to follow everything. But having once per month consolidated MS technology related articles, was super nice!
