Download
How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
I sit down (or stand up) with Scott Stanfield of Vertigo Software. They have been building software for Microsoft for over ten years now, coming up with tons of applications. Here Scott introduces us to Family Explorer, a stand-alone family tree program that supports all the classic geneology formats.
Technically, here's Vertigo in their own words:
Technically, we’re a collection of engineers and designers using the latest Microsoft technology to redefine the human/computer interface. Technically, we’re a collection of engineers and designers uniquely equipped to make the most of this ever-evolving technology – whether it’s Vista code, custom web applications or even new platform demos. Technically, that’s what we do.

Simply Amazing stuff.
You'll always just be 20 to me, goddess of gaming.
The level of integration between web based resources and applications continues to grow at an amazing pace. It's becoming almost impossible to keep up with it anymore.
It all started with HTML...now we're dealing with javascript, flash, and the hybrid AJAX protocols all over the web.
Honestly, no sooner do I rap my head around one aspect of this stuff and I'm completely lost with another. It's becoming difficult to be versed in all software programs commonly used.
Anyway, I'm not particularly big in geneology websites, but I appreciate the concept. I don't see the need to research my own family, but keeping track of the Royals and the Kennedy's is always a challenge.
...love the age jokes. Yeah, 23...10 years ago.
