Please Sara and others from MS, can I suggest that you use the Article features of .Text ?
We lost so much from the main feed ! -
Blogging and mobility
Finally I can blog from my XDA ! Very cool, thanks Frank for the links and the application.
Now I wish I could have access to my .Text admin tool from the browser. I really missed this feature.
I like the idea to blog on the move, so geeky
First issue, the login button is not clickable on a Pocket PC. I think because the button is a link with a CSS on top. Not sure that IE Pocket PC like CSS.
So if Scott or someone can have the fantastic idea to propose a Pocket PC version of weblogs.asp.net, it could be so damn cool ;-) -
Apple 2004 start like a very bad souffle :-(
Not really impressed by the Apple CEO keynote.
OK the new Ipod mini is cool, but I was expecting something better this year.
And a VERY loooong and booooring demo of GarageBand, something so NOT new !
I was connecting a midi keyboard to an Apple II and a C64 so long time ago.
Does it means that Apple has less and less interest in computers ? -
Microsoft and Apple: strange relationships like cat and ... mouse ?

The Apple of the year
I know we are talking about .Net here, but I am always excited every year at the same date awaiting like many the annual Steve Jobs keynote.
Yes I am still an Apple big fan, since ... 1978 (Apple II) !
And yes I believe this kind of excitment and madness surrounding the San Francisco MacWorld Expo is good for our business.
I would like to see Bill Gates doing the same. You should have a look at the number of mac rumors sites, it's really good fun.
And as usual, Steve will surprise everybody by something totally unexpected, last big one was the Ipod. Today everybody talk about a mini Ipod, others about a kind of Apple Tivo box.
I also like the fact that Apple is still there (Macintosh is now almost 20 years old), still shaking the industry by an innovative approach. Sure they don't create a mass market all the time but the Ipod is surely a success.
So now only few hours to wait and see what Steve Jobs has in his hat this year ;-) -
Happy new year to the whole community !
Guys here we go 2003 finish slowly. It's pouring rain here in West Cork,Ireland, but few drinks will warm our souls (and our bodys) very quickly.

[dScribe] New article
I just finished a first version of a new article for dScribe (CMS project).
I am supposed to be in holidays( guess what does it means if you are married ;-))) but hey difficult to stay off a computer for 15 days, too much effort ;-)
So I just started a new article about an important phase of the dScribe project, where you can create and edit the Sections of your project. -
Book recommended for this Christmas
One book surely is the Da Vinci Code. Very good indeed, with all the conspiracies you can imagine, and all the mysteries around the Holy Grail.

Great reading, remind me Michael Crichton in some way. Dan Brown has apparently signed for a movie version.
I think about Gerard Depardieu for the French cop, and obviously Harrison Ford for the professor Langdon, but maybe it's too obvious.
