MSDN Subscription - Zupancic Heroic MVP

Props, kudos, and thanks a million to my good friend Aaron Zupancic , one of Microsoft's most valuable MVPs. Last week I pinged him to ask his opinion about a site I'd found adversting an VS 2008 Pro MSDN Pro 2 year sub for $999. It was a decent price but the site seemed a bit sketchy. He seemed...

Bill Gates' Last Day

There has been a lot of press coverage about Bill Gates leaving his day-to-day activities at Microsoft to focus on philanthropy. As I have been reading them I have been thinking about what it will mean for Microsoft. I have seen several companies where the founders have left. In most cases the transition...

Serenity and Leukemia: An Angel's Battle with Cancer

One of my very best friends, Phil Burns , whom I love like a brother, called me Friday afternoon. But it wasn't him. It was his phone but I did not recognize the voice on the phone. The voice belonged to a woman whom I assume was a hospital emergency room employee. She informed me that Phil's...

How Would You Answer This Question?

This is a little off of the typical content for my blog but when I saw this I thought I just have to share (and besides its Friday so you deserve a little break). I got an e-mail asking me to take a survey. It was a web based survey from a company I know so I decided to try it out. Almost all the questions...

Internet Explorer Gains Market Share

According to ComputerWorld IE gained a small market share in April. It is the first gain for IE since October and comes after Apple attempted to push Safari out via automatic updates. I didn't do that well in statistics but the numbers seemed relatively small and might just reflect that there is...

It Ain't Easy Being Green

I predicted earlier that one of the big trends this year would be "green". I have seen it a lot more lately. Last night as I was waiting for dinner I was flipping through a Wired magazine and saw a few ads from IBM on how they can make the data center green. It is not just technology companies...

What were we thinking?

The other day I was shredding some papers from the early 90's. I was shocked to find a letter from my bank (I don't use that bank any more and the more I think about it I think it was a good idea to switch). In the letter, the bank had just sent me a debit card to use to withdraw funds from my...

Trends for 2008

First of all let me say Happy 2008 to everyone out there. It seems hard to believe that another year has come and gone. I have sworn off swearing off making predictions and will attempt to come up with a list of things that I think will be important to all of us working in technology. The Economy - In...

It's a Small, Small World

Last night while watching the news I saw a report of an earthquake in New Zealand. I immediately thought of all of the people that I have shared e-mails with and the few that I have met from New Zealand. It got me to thinking about how much smaller the world has become, or how much larger my view of...

What Might Have Been

Looking at the calendar I realize that had I not left Keane 5 weeks ago I would be celebrating my 15th anniversary with the company today. Looking back over the last 5 weeks I have learned a lot and had a chance to work on projects that I think will prove to have a bigger impact than the work I was doing...
