Today was my first experience with PowerShell, and I have to say I’m impressed. PowerShell truly does appear to be a command prompt for the .NET generation. While it can be agravating at times, I can see PowerShell quickly becoming a “can’t do without” tool in my arsenal.

Integrating ASP.NET AJAX Extensions (1.0) With SharePoint
by liquidpooled on Oct.13, 2008, under .NET, MSDN, Microsoft, Office, Sharepoint Server, TechNet, Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio 2008, Windows SharePoint Services
Mike Ammerlaan has an old(er) post up on his blog relating to integrating the ASP.NET AJAX Extensions (1.0) into SharePoint. While his post does follow the standard integration instructions for the most part, he does offer some insight into including a ScriptManager in any custom web parts as well as working with UpdatePanels (which can be troublesome prior to MOSS 2007 SP1).
I might play around with implementing a custom receiver to implement the web.config changes as more and more clients begin to request this functionality in their MOSS implementations.
