I already blogged about this topic some time ago (a blog post I moved from my old blog to this new one) but things change pretty fast in this IT world. Basically what I wanted to talk about is the pinging servers functionality. This “feature” lets you ...read more

I’m not sure if you got it but, in my previous post, I put a link in the Windows Phone logo. During my trips and my online meetings, I talked with different people and realized some of them don’t know about this feature included in Windows Live. It’s ...read more

During one candidate review and another (), I thought about writing a post about e-mail messaging offering. And this is something I’m thinking about for several days. I wanted to compare the 2 services from a higher perspective (but you can find a detailed ...read more

When you attend these great conferences, it’s not only about technical content, it is also a good opportunity to meet great people with great potential. Kostas saw me accessing Facebook almost each day (in the spare time, which was quite tiny ) and suggested me to use the application he did: it’s called...

After days and days and days of talking and rumors, what was I supposed to do? Simply talking ? Of course not ! (everyone needs to reward himself sometimes ) I found the device @ 399 € (Vodafone branded) which is quite good, considering that in Europe, unbranded, it is sold at 100 bucks more. If you...

Your Digital Lifestyle: Girl from Mars Cool !!

Sometimes it’s nice to break the routine and have a different day. It happened last week, when I had the chance to be invited by Andrea Saltarello (I know Andre, I should have passed by months ago!) to the Managed Designs . Nice office, in the city center of Milano, modern and hospitable, and a little...

“Do you want to get quick medal count updates on Beijing Olympics?” This is a nice gadget to install in your Windows Vista Sidebar! …mmmhh, I guess it is not that precise: I remember we had 6 gold medals…. (anyway it is nice, it just needs to be updated ) Link to: Windows Vista Sidebar Gadget for Beijing...

Do many of you travel much? I found this website very interesting: Seat Reviews , Airline Reviews , Airport Reviews and even Lounge Reviews . They also give an Award for each category and each Region, based on a Worldwide Survey . Good thing is: all the reviews are made by the users (by the users, for...

As I send a lot of meeting requests using Microsoft Outlook 2007 I always wondered if I could put the people I want to invite in BCC. Yes, strange request as, if I want to invite someone to a meeting, all the participants would at least like to know who is participating. Yes, most of the time but not...

For those who were bored and bothered by using 2 tools to keep personal data (contacts, calendar and e-mails) into multiple accounts…well… you don’t have to anymore !! The Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 lets you sync, using Outlook 2003/2007, multiple calendars and contacts into one single repository...

With all the information and rumors we received, I wonder whether it will ever be available in Europe as well: I love it ! Link to: Treo™ 800w smartphone - Specifications

....mi sono preso una sbandata: Ma come si fa a non "bramarlo" dopo aver letto le specifiche ??

Mentre è da poco uscita la nuova Technical Preview di Windows Live Writer (versione 14.0.3913.522), vorrei segnalare questo utile post di Sergio Pappalardo , membro del Team della Community Visual Basic Tips & Tricks , che spiega passo-passo come impostare la lingua italiana per il controllo ortografico...

Una bella iniziativa, che ricorda quella di I’m Messenger . In pratica si fa il login con il proprio Windows Live ID, si seleziona l’Organizzazione che si vuole aiutare e, ogniqualvolta si fa una ricerca, automaticamente verrà donato 1 penny all’Organizzazione che si è scelto di aiutare. Certo non è...

Tra poco cambio il mio portatile e, tra le varie applicazioni che dovrò reinstallare e riconfigurare, Windows Live Writer sicuramente rientra tra queste. Ho trovato questa applicazione molto carina e semplice da usare (e soprattutto utile!): non è un plugin per WLW ma un’applicazione stand-alone sviluppata...

Ora non ci basta più gironzolare virtualmente per le città: con questa nuova applicazione targata Microsoft Research è possibile partecipare a visite guidate del cielo da parte di astronomi ed esperti di famosi osservatori. Ovviamente è possibile anche “perdersi” nello spazio girovagando solitari “alla...

Capita spesso di sentire degli strafalcioni quando senti tuoi connazionali (me compreso ) parlare in inglese. Grazie all’aiuto della sapiente Licia , ho messo giù una lista (ovviamente tutt’altro che esaustiva) dei termini che, per assonanza, traduciamo dall’inglese all’italiano in modo non corretto...
