Model-Glue tips from Mark Drew

Another great set of Model-Glue posts that I've been meaning to share (and blog, for my own personal reference) is collection of tips from Mark Drew:

Model Glue Tips Part 1: Separate out your Model-Glue file
Model Glue Tips Part 2: Use Naming conventions for your Event Handlers
Model Glue Tips Part 3: Keep your views tidy
Model Glue Tips Part 4: Use Generic Database Messages to speed up your development
Model Glue Tips Part 5: Maximize your re-usability with message arguments
Model Glue Tips Part 6: Create a services directory to keep your model tidy
Model Glue Tips Part 7: Set myself in your views

Once you've gone through a "hello world" Model-Glue application, and the basics of the framework no longer scare you, these tips are what I consider the "next step" -- you've written a "real world" MG app, and now it's time to see how to break that up, and organize it in a way that makes sense. I use most (if not all) of these tips in my own Model-Glue apps; all of them are extremely simple, yet effective when trying to keep large applications well organized, and professional.

...thanks, Mark, for putting these tips together -- they've been very helpful!
