Apple finally delivers some of my most wanted features...
Looks like the new iTunes will have the cover art browsing that I've been wanting. Also the iPods (and iTunes a guess) now support gapless playback. I have alot of music that really needs this (Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, Rush etc...)

Great interview on IronPython...
I just watched this interview on IronPython: http://weblog.infoworld.com/udell/screenroom/ironpython_flv.html
This is really great stuff and it reminds of why its such an exciting time to be a developer on the MS platform. -
Convert Thunderbird Email to Windows Mail
I've been converting my thunderbird email boxes to Windows Mail on Vista. To do this you need to use a tool that convert the mbox format to .eml format. I found this free one that seems to work pretty well: http://www.broobles.com/imapsize/th2outlook.php

Problems with RewritePath and Search Engines.
We just recently launched the new version of LearnVisualStudio.NET. The implementation uses the RewritePath method to serve up dynamic pages based on templates. All of our pre deployment testing showed that this was all working without a hitch. Once we deployed to production however it became clear which test cases we had left out. We didn't test how the site responded when getting crawled by search engines.

Made the switch to Vista
Well I took the plunge this weekend and installed the August CTP (build 5536) on my MacBook Pro. I know, I couldnt wait for RC1 to be posted to MSDN. So far everything has been running smoothly. Due to the nature of working on LearnVisualStudio.NET I have all of my dev tools in VMWare so changing out primary OSes is actually a breeze for me.
