New and Notable 210

Prodded by Mike to pick up the slack, I am trying to get one of these out each morning before all my work

REST/Astoria/Web Programming/Web Services

• Christian shows how to access SSDL (ADO.NET Entity Framework's store schema definition language and generate client-side code
• He also states the latest Astoria / ADO.NET Data Services CTP also includes a client-side library with support for creating LINQ queries against a REST API - a LINQ to REST.
• I played with the ADO.NET Data Services yesterday again and they are indeed very simple and powerful.
