No Such thing -  Oct 1, 2009

Technically there is no such thing as C#.Net (no space between sharp sign and the period).  Microsoft and others use this phrase with a space (i.e. C# .Net).

VB.NET is used to distinguish it from earlier versions of the language, which did not compile against .NET Frameworks. Which is where I think this started. C# didn't exist before .NET so there's no need to classify it.

Perhaps we should use it to play to the lowest common denominator (i.e. "non-technical" recruiter, hiring managers or hr reps).

Acceptable Uses:
C# .Net, C#, C-Sharp, Visual C#, etc.....
