Using Trace.xsd in asp.net applications is a nice feature to log errors. To get this to work you have to create a web.config which must reside in the application root folder.

The web.config looks like this:


<trace enabled="true" requestLimit="10" pageOutput="false" traceMode="SortByTime" localOnly="true"/>

Now whenever an error occurs it is logged and can be accessed via the following url: http://servername/approot/trace.axd

Cool huh!

Aside from the theater smelling like urine I really enjoyed Juno. I found Ellen Page’s character, Juno MacGuff, unique and refreshing. Juno struck all of the right emotions. It was comical, sad, exciting, and pure audio bliss. The soundtrack was wizard, I recommend it to anyone. I give it 5 out of 5 stars.
