Do you know any source for nice looking software designs? (non Web).
There is always Apple Design Awards or something like the Mobile User Experience Awards for mobile applications.
There are some good examples on http://emberapp.com. Mostly for Mac though ...
I would take a look at http://quince.infragistics.com/, while not complete applications, it does show you some best practices/design patterns for both Windows and Web applications.
I'd also take a look at some of the Windows Forms component companies, DevExpress, Telerik and Infragistics. You can learn a lot from the look and feel of their components.
In this case... a lot of programmers tend to talk only about the worst examples...cause UI really depends on personel taste.
Have a look at this question for the worst examples:
Stackoverflow Question
From my point of view i prefer clear looks...nothing fancy etc...but it really depends on the software and topic...hope this helps

Just food for thought:
What features would you consider in an ideal debugging tool?
What about debugging tools for distributed systems?
What do you think is missing from current debugging tools?
Being able to step backwards would make me very happy C person.
I would really like to see some more artificial intelligence in debuggers. Like they should be able to know which bug I was looking for and fix it automatically. Distributed AI would be even better. One day I dream of submitting a README to github and the code would be written for me automatically, 100% bug-free of course.

I may have to contribute to a legacy system, classic asp with vbscript web app at work.
What are some good learning tutorials/books on this.
Please don't say you should just use .NET mvc as changing the existing system isn't an option.
I won't forget the good old ASP For Dummies, read it every day for about one month and enjoyed every page of it. Clear, simple and to the point. :)
I would recommend this book, i used to use it as a daily reference when i started learning classic asp, pretty much like yourself i didnt have the option to use dot net
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beginning-ASP-3-0-Programmer/dp/0764543636/ref=sr_1_11?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1297414852&sr=1-11
Also try http://www.w3schools.com/asp/default.asp for some basic samples. If you provide more information on what you will be coding in asp i can probably suggest more sites.
Regards

I am searching for a good online project managment software. There are plenty of them though. So, the best way would be to get some recommendations. :-)
Lately I've found Zoho Projects.. does anyone use it?
Thanks for answers.
Andy
I've used ProjectPier: http://www.projectpier.org/
but we are now moving to http://teambox.com/community
They are open source "replicas" of Basecamp. Teambox seems to be much more up to date as ProjectPier hasn't had a release in a loooooooooooong time.
There's also Trac, which I like because it ties into svn and gives you milestones, bug tracking, etc. http://trac.edgewall.org/
I'm using AgileZen and I'm happy with it. It implements the Kanban methodology and its very simple and effective. Pricing is not cheap, but they give a free account to free software projects.

One of the jobs I'm looking at requires good experience with EAI.
Was wondering if anyone can recommend good EAI books / resources?
I've had this book for several years, and I still regard it as a valuable reference.
Enterprise Integration Patterns: Designing, Building, and Deploying Messaging Solutions
The author also has a list of books on his website.
Although not a classical eai book i like "Enterprise Service Bus" by Dave Chapell -> it adresses many Integration challenges and gives a rough understanding of some key principles of "modern integration"
The already mentioned Enterprise Integration Patterns is also very good for diving into some conceptual background.

I have a completed Cocoa application and would like to sell it. I have found many services that will sell your application, but not many that will also handle activation. Are there any services that will integrate activation into the installation file or are there any services that are easy to integrate (hopefully will take at max an hour to implement)? For example, SoftwareKey looks good, but it is only for Windows.
Thanks for your help in advance.
If you're talking about in-application purchase of Mac-based Cocoa applications, there's Golden % Braeburn and the new open source Cocoa Boutique. Kagi and eSellerate are also popular services for paying to activate Mac software.
I am not aware of a service that does both, but there are options such as the AcquaticPrime framework to take care of the licensing part. This question on StackOverflow may be helpful for you.
If you can write your own key generator then e-junkie is a cheap and easy to use system that can process payments and issue codes. With a bit of creativity you can even use a spreadsheet to generate pre-generated codes, then it's just writing the activation code in Cocoa. Took me no more than a couple of hours.
