2 new plugins for Visual Studio

I came across 2 interesting plugins for Visual Studio 2005 today, that could make your life as a developer a little easier again.
The first one is a UML designer that integrates with the IDE. Best of all, it's completely free. To download it, go here (registration required, but as said, free!).

As with everything, best things come in pairs. The second plugin is a new ORM tool that also integrates with Visual Studio 2005. It provides a rich API and a powerful definition generator which, with a few clicks, transforms your database into a full featured business object model, following the powerful Active Record pattern.

To download (a free edition is available, see website for details on usage), go here.

Now go and play with these new tools! If you have any good (or bad) experience with them, please share.
