Create a Start Page

What I Did

Okay, I took the first 15 minutes and create a new WebApp project; added a label, input box and button to the default page; and added NewGroup page.  I then wandered off to cart kids around.  When I got back, I added the Response.Redirect call to the onclick handler so that the NewGroup page would be launched.  Finally, I ran the app and then I checked in the additions.

Delays

These are the delays I had to deal with:

• My VM took a while to start.
• I haven't messed with ASPX pages for some time so I had to look up the Response.Redirect call.
• My IE browser was not configured right to work with intranet files.
• I took a break to run kids around to their activities and then we've got a lot of typical evening chaos feeding the boys after football, cleaning out the vacuum cleaner, answering emails to my sister, redirecting kids as they pick up stuff, got the kids ready for bed, etc.

Some of those delays need to be included, and some of them do not.  I'm going to include the slow VM start up and the IE browser configuration.  I'll also count the short research I had to do.  But, the break to take care of the kids will not be counted.  (I'm also not counting the blogging time.)  Therefore, my initial estimate of 15 minutes is compared to an actual time of 25 minutes.

Status

Task 1 is now done.  Tasks 2 & 3 are also now done.
