Call me a traitor. Call me weak minded to the Apple Jedi mind trick. Yes I have a 3g iPhone, the cheapest one of course. My Treo 750, which I really liked , was starting to have some battery fade. In addition, I was using the IE browser on my Treo more

So I finally rolled off my last gig, which had occupied me for the last 18 months. In the last 18 months, I learned a lot about how my customer did business, and thanks to a great account team, learned how Microsoft does business. I liked the business

In a really weird coincidence today, I ran into a great book about WSS 3.0. I have been busy hacking away at some old scripts that push around templates, etc on the file system for WSS and MOSS. The goal is to take a build from Team Foundation Server

So, i had to start approving comments today. I had always allowed annonymous, open comments, but something has gone wrong this week. I got some profane, angry comments that were completely mis directed. Is it a new type of SPAM? I don't think so, it seems
