Hear from Tim Huckaby, Founder of InterKnowlogy & Actus Software, and Mary Jo Foley, Editor of ZDNets "All About Microsoft", as they discuss the perceptions from the Build 2011 Conference. Mary Jo talks about the excitement around Window 8, how everyone can be a part of it, Metro style apps, integration between apps, and more.

Unfortunately Microsoft is doing these like Apple more and more, so many secrecy and limits, especially for developers, its nonsense. How many WinRT stuff did you see after BUILD ? There are several videos here on C9, sure (and thanks Charles!), but how many blog post elsewhere (like blogs.msdn.com) ? its even a banned topic on MSDN Magazine. WinDiv people can't even mention the OS. Basically the ONLY one from MS talking about Win8 is the B8 blog, WTH ?
