I'm Back

I've been having one of those times recently when you know you have to do something (e.g. blogging) but you put it off for a couple of days, then a couple more, then push it to the end of the week, then the next and before you know it a couple of months Read More...

Forget the iPhone, this is the interesting announcement from Macworld Expo

Back Blogging after a break, now where do I start?

OK, what with travelling about a bit and a splash of holiday time my blog has been seriously neglected and now there is so much to talk about I don't know where to start. It's a good thing that Live Writer doesn't have a self blogging capability like Read More...

Causing a Security Splash - but is it good to have Microsoft and the word 'bundling' in the same sentence?

Our OneCare offering is getting some positive press coverage at present. It looks as though our venture into this market is welcomed by consumers given the chart position held in the US market. I have to admit that I'm looking forward to getting my parents Read More...

Jet-lag: - a useful way to get ready for your working day!

As some of you probably know it was TechReady 3 in Seattle last week and 5000+ Microsoft employees of a technical persuasion were in town for the biannual techno love-in. There was lots of cool stuff on show both in the keynotes and breakouts but as this Read More...
