Just two days ago, Microsoft announced that Windows Home Server 2011 is now ready.

As a developer, should you be interested in Windows Home Server (WHS) 2011? My answer is yes. If (when) you already have Windows programming experience, you are ready to build applications for WHS. For instance, you could build networking utilities or scheduled tasks that help people at home to get most of their server.

Even though WHS doesn't yet command a large market share or come close to it's enterprise versions at corporations, it is an interesting product that contains many useful features for small businesses as well. Something to explore.
