It appears that the new Windows Live services portal that Microsoft has been pushing has finally caught my eye.  A new service that will allow me to communicate with Windows Media Center over the Internet. The interactions allow users to remotely record television shows, find programming information, and discover viewing preferences from buddies in their MSN Messenger social network.

Now they aren't saying yet if this service will allow for remote viewing, but lets hope we hear more about that soon. Kris Barton at Microsoft provided this screenshot of this sexy service in action.

Web Authoring Statistics from Google

Google has posted a very interesting analysis of the code/authoring techniques of over one billion documents here. 
It seems much of the data they collected was pretty obvious (ex: the abundance of  the "a" and "img" element).   But, it's still an interesting read.
