Magazines

Print and online publications for current information on all types of development.

MSDN Magazine, incorporating MSJ and Microsoft Internet Developer, is the source for professional developers who employ Microsoft solutions. MSDN Magazine covers Microsoft tools and technologies such as Windows 2000, COM, DCOM, Internet Information Services, Microsoft Transaction Server, Visual Basic, Visual InterDev, Visual C++, and ASP.

MSJ has been incorporated into MSDN Magazine. The MSJ Web archives go back to 1997 for valuable articles on important tools and technologies such as XML, Windows 2000, ATL, MFC, Windows CE, DirectX, C++, Win32, COM, debugging, security, and more.

MIND has been incorporated into MSDN Magazine. Browse through the complete Web archives (dating to the original issue in 1996) or search for articles on XML, Visual Basic, scripting, SQL Server, IIS, and anything else a developer might need to build an interactive or e-commerce site.

The MSDN News is a printed newspaper, published bi-monthly for the developer audience. The newspaper features new technical articles and ongoing columns, including the popular "Ask Dr. GUI," as well as a regular series of posters. Subscriptions are free to MSDN subscribers.

This regular Webcast brings you inside Microsoft to talk with developers and planners about our hottest new technologies. The segments range from broad overviews to down-and-dirty coding, with some news and entertainment mixed in, too.

MSDN Online Voices is a collection of regular columns on topics ranging from the woes of developing in the corporate workspace to handling exceptions in C++. The publishing dates are staggered so that a new set of columns goes live each week. Columns include:
