Firefox Support for WebParts & Atlas
I just have to point to this , because of the "cool" factor. Some really awesome stuff being developed, and I'm really glad to see it supporting Firefox since it's been my main browser for about 2 years now.
Mix06 Content
The people behind Mix06 just posted a bunch of new content on the Mix06 site. If you're thinking of attending it's worth checking out. I found out about this from their RSS feed .
Messenger Beta, once again.
From my last post it might seem like I'm harping on the Live Messenger Beta quite a bit. I'd just like to get some help on the latest issue, if anyone can help me out. From the main window, if I go to Help > Beta Invitations it opens up a browser window...

One of the most fine examples of sarcasm and humor anywhere
I ran into this site about 4-5 years ago and just remembered the URL today so I thought I'd share it with anyone reading. Acts of Gord Running a video game rental store sounds like one of the most thankless jobs ever but, this guy has found a way to make...
Light Blogging
It's been quite a while since I posted anything here (about a month). To be honest, I have a legit excuse when I say "I've been busy". I've been doing work for Telligent , writing the documentation for the 2.0 release of Community Server . You might think...

Not all customer service is bad...
I've seen many blog posts by people where they completely flame the customer support provided by a company like Dell, HP, Sony, Best Buy, etc. Well, I had a very good customer service experience today so I though, to be fair, I should share the other...

Attended a course by Edward Tufte today
I attended a one-day course by Edward Tufte in San Francisco today where he discussed his ideas about information display. It was very thought-provoking and he is an excellent speaker. As an added bonus, all attendees got to take home his 3 books, which...
