Visual WebGui ASP.NET Control Wrapper tutorials

I would like to share the new How To tutorials published on VisualWebGui.com showing how to use 3rd party asp.net controls within Visual WebGui projects. The articles demonstrate and walk through the wrapping process of a few common controls created by companies like Infragistics, ComponentOne and Telerik into Visual WebGui which allows you to leverage those controls.

Visual WebGui allows simple & fast development & deployment of Web/Cloud applications while providing full flexibility & extensibility of other ASP.NET components.

These are the articles:
How To Wrap ASP.NET Controls (Walkthrough) - Telerik RadListBox
How To Wrap ASP.NET Controls (Walkthrough) – ComponentOne C1Calendar
How To Wrap ASP.NET Controls (Walkthrough) – Infragistics UltraWebGrid

New Social Networking blogging concept created with Visual WebGui

MyTimelineOnline is a unique blogging website featuring advanced controls that allows users to document their life, or the life of a loved one and to share their collective experiences within their social network and with the world. MyTimelineOnline features a control originally designed by MIT and converted to .NET by Rob Chartier. The timeline view allows users to quickly navigate several years' worth of postings to explore what events occurred in their own life or the lives of others.

The site was developed by a single individual and originally technologies such as Telerik were considered and discarded due to the complexity and cost. As a result, the entire site was rewritten by a single part time developer in Visual WebGui which provided a significant increase in the usability of the site as well as the visual style. Visual WebGui was chosen since it was extremely easy to use & develop with and it also allowed rewriting pages written in other Ajax solutions very quickly. Additionally, Visual WebGui allowed focusing on usability since the Visual WebGui themes took care of the rest.

Prior to upgrading the site to Visual WebGui the user experience was lacking, including repeating unnecessary page refreshes. "With VWG I was able to create a fully ajax’ed site quickly without worrying about the typical issues," founder John Ruf.
