Resharper: a refactoraholic's dream come true

So I recently discovered Resharper, and it's a refactoraholic's dream come true. Most of the tedious routine tasks are now automated, just the way they should have always been. Why oh why God did you make me wait so long for this miracle? Why did I have to waste countless hours doing manually what was always meant to be done automatically?

Not sure if your field is used from anywhere else? Resharper already knows and suggests before you may even wonder. Is your naming scheme consistent? Resharper will tell you all about it. Apparently you can even apply a solution-wide code analysis, which I haven't yet tried, but it sounds promising.

It may seem a bit intrusive, popping up with suggestions all over the place, but it works for me, so far most of the suggestions have been very sensible, and it definitely beats the shit out of Visual Assist. Oh and it provides a Unit Testing framework too, while it's at it. Not too shabby.
