Cool show guys!
Btw. what happened to the small C9 guy?
Specs here in case anyone is interested. I am digging it and as Erik pointed out, it's quite shiny
Way to go! What happened to your old notebook, now that you have the new one?
Sadly, I'm expecting webslices to fail horribly simply because nobody is going to implement them. I mean, look at ebay. Why do you have to go to a special search page? Why didn't they just render all auction pages with web slices? If the number one example that's always given for webslices doesn't even feature them by default, what's that going to say for the rest of the web?
I don't know. The popularity of this feature relies on broad implementation, and so far, I'm not seeing any indications of that happening.
I have to give it back as it's actually a loaner given that my Dell 1330 was...unsound. A team normally keeps an extra laptop so if someone's laptop dies, they can have use the loaner.
Good points, IE8 certainly has lots of work ahead for them. My biggest wish would be to be able to have a great extensibility model using managed code and built-in support in Visual Studio for building/debugging addins.
LOL,

more or less a mad-man-show
This is our goal
Brian and I interrupt each other is because one of us knows a story deeper than another,
...with one word: "cool". That's not informative
Hmm, not quite, on Popfly I gave my personal view and pain on using custom audio, I explained how the data structures and algorithms book is a bit different in that it covers pseudocode, or how massive the changes were to NGen for SP1, all in the first nine minutes.
