Recently went for lunch with a few other professionals, and after an intense discussion, I was scathingly REBUKED and DEVOURED by another developer for selfishly not giving back to the technical community. (just kidding Hemant ;)) Especially, after I have used many coders blogs to help me solve some of my own problems. So, as a nod to my fellow passionate coder, and as an acknowledgement of my moral obligation to the coding community, I have officially created my first technical blog.
For now, if I run into problems I'll just be stating the issue and pasting in links to what helped solve it.
Thanks Hemant!

The project type is not supported by this installation
Kept randomally getting this error when me and another developer were working on the same project. We narrowed it down to the other developer checking in the .csproj file from his machine.
The following steps temporarily solved it until the other developer overwrote the .csproj file.
1. Right click on the project and choose “Edit …” to open the project file as XML.
2. Delete ProjectTypeGuids node.
3. Save and close the XML file.
4. Right click on the project and reload it.
While this solved the problem until the next check-in of the .csproj, on further investigation it turned out one of the machines didn't have Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools: Visual Studio 2005 Extensions installed. After installing this, the problem was really solved.
