Continuous Integration Wash Cycle

This post about a developer's daily routine when using Continuous Integration is a nice breakdown that can be used when introducing people to CI. Following the links through the posts brings you eventually to this post about Discontinuous Integration which reinforces the practice of committing often. Following a daily routine as described in the first post will help prevent discontinuous integration. We've switched to using Team City after having used both CruiseControl.Net and Cruise for our CI. Team City is by far the most usable and makes following a daily routine much easier.
