New Version of Growl is Out There Do You Want to Update Now?

When I saw this popup on the upper right corner of my macbook, I started to think what date did I install this program? or what does this program do?

After a quick search I have found that Gmail Desktop alerts are using this 3rd party application. I have installed its 1.2.1 version which is around 6MB and hope that it will work better from now on.

I wish Growl added something about Google or Gmail into the text of the update notification.

Sending Large Data with JSON

Image
On ASP.NET(v 4.0), there is default limit for JSON serialization and if you are exchanging large amount of data over JSON then you need to set the maximum length of JSON which can be sent/received before/after serialization. Here is the easiest way to set JSON length for serialization code which you can use in web.config file. This example sets the max length to ~2MB. <system.web.extensions> <scripting> <webServices> <jsonSerialization maxJsonLength="2000000"> </jsonSerialization> </webServices> </scripting> </system.web.extensions>
