  • MIX08 Day 2

    Listening to a guy who does an amazing Johnny Cash right now (vocals and guitar), waiting for this afternoon's keynote.  I'm starting to grow a new appreciation for the music of Johnny Cash.  I'm trying to wake up still, as last night was a late one.  By the time I looked at my watch it was 3am (or somewhere around there, the needle on my watch kept moving).

    I had a little trouble getting started this morning which wasn't surprising, but luckily the Keynote didn't start until 9:30am (which was 11:30 am EST).  The Keynote interesting, and a few items really got my attention.  What NBC is doing for the Olympics with Silverlight was extremely impressive.  I'm certainly looking forward to that.  In addition, there was a last minute mention of Silverlight Mobile support.  It turns out that there's Silverlight support for Windows Mobile 6, and Nokia has just signed up to provide support for a range of devices, including their Internet tablets.  That really caught my attention because I've been waiting to be able to develop a rich app for my N770, but have never found a good place to start.  I'm hoping whatever they do is easily ported to the N770, otherwise I may have to upgrade.

  • Are you going to Mix?

    I'm heading out to mix tomorrow, and thought it would be great to meet up with some of you while I'm there.  So here's what I'm thinking.  On Tuesday night, there is Treasure Hunt at the Treasure Island hotel.  I'm not sure I'll be there in time for the actual Treasure Hunt, but I will be around later that evening (for dessert, drinks, etc).  So stop by and say hello!
