So people are waiting for the beginning of the week to blog. Well… we see that today.

We have 7 excellent links to read on the subject of ASP.NET, WebAPI, CORS, OpenID, OAuth, etc. Then, I followed with a tutorial on MSDN blogs on EF6.

Finally, I’m closing with Hanselman’s Newsletter of Wonderful Things (a must read!), some test related blog and BreezeJS with WebAPI and OData.
