Ping 32: MyPhone, Pressure sensitive Keyboards, Microsoft TAG, Anti- Virus

Four of the five links in this post point to URLs starting with https://mail.microsoft.com/ and are therefore asking for a login.

Because they linked internal resource.

hey how do i become a fan on facebook? i cant find you guys...

A pressure sensitive keyboard would be great for sending data to a virtual MIDI device that you could then use for controlling drum racks and other instruments in Ableton Live. You can do it with a regular QWERTY keyboard right now but since they're not pressure sensitive they always send a velocity of 100% to the software.

What did you change with the cameras, compression? The same goes for the last episode of "This week on C9" The image is more blury and not as good as it was, even when I download the High version

Again no mention of the needless limitation to certain markets they pulled on MSE after they offered it worldwide for a day.

Here is the Facebook fan page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ping/115099282054

the links were in the links, it was some kind of test to see if you could decode them:

here they are in order:

This is a joke: but they are Forcing you to watch the ep, to understand more about the links next to the vid hmmm good or bad marketing ploy?

Lovely show again. At least two topics of personal interest this time. Windows Security Essentials and pressure sensitive keyboards. Actually sounds like it could be used for more expressive music composition as well

(And again, you're killing my ears and newly repaired (new units) audiophile speakers (yes, I listen to C9 through them). I just took a quick look at the output.)

Yeah the show was blurrier than normal, a bit too bright and as always the audio sometimes gets too loud.

Wow, I don't have anything positive to say today

Nice episode as usual. Downloaded it and watched. Yes, MS tag has immense potential but many do not know about it . I think I had seen a video of lfoy (or was someone else?) asking many people what it is and I think even many MSFTies failed to answer.

Well became a fan of ping on facebook. Infact I signed into facebook after a long time. Added few more as friends. Given a thumbs Up to this Episode also.

I have been using the MyPhone for a few months (the beta worked great!). I would like to add that it should use the Sky Drive as data storage; I am getting really close to the 200mb limit. Does anyone know if they are going to integrate the services together it all uses the same Live Account.

i've said it before, and i'll say it again.

i don't understand the reasoning behind Microsoft TAG. why can't they just use QR codes? in japan, everything already have QR codes. from my wii games, to books. all japanese phones have a QR code reader and the scenarios in the clip are already common here.

another thing, according to this wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Tag#Microsoft_Tag here, you need to send the HCCB to Microsoft and then Ms will send back the URL. Why? Why can't you just get the URL without going to Ms? QR codes can do that. in fact that's how it is usually used here.

i think Ms TAG is a redundant technology that doesn't really offer anything more than QR codes (probably even less, considering you have to be in reach of Ms servers).
