What is your favorite blog post you've written?
My favorite article is: How to execute a method (code behind) in JavaScript (es-ES). I think it is very helpful, and programmers use a lots. is interesting to have a way to execute functions or methods in the server side, from the client side in ASP.Net.
What do you do with TechNet Wiki, and how does that fit into the rest of your job?
I use the TechNet Wiki to publish articles that would benefit the community.
