Singapore!  Are you ready for our local Sumo-Robot competition with Microsoft Robotics Studio?  If you are, check out the video on how YOU can get started on the competition using the VIRTUAL SUMO ROBOT.  Getting the virtual sumo ready on your machine should take about 20 mins!  We have number of additional videos to show you the basics of the robot and guidance on how to code your logic.In this video, Shen Yizhe (MIC Tech Lead from NUS) and Chewy Chong (MS Developer…[more ]

Vincent Oh (IW Product Manager), Stanley Tan (Academic Program Manager) and Chewy Chong (Developer Evangelist) were the first ever to install the newly released Office 2007 in Singapore (and probably all of Asia Pacific).  In this quick little video, they brag about this point and show the first DVD made of Office 2007 in Singapore plus the first laptop to receive Office 2007.  Vincent also shows us a few quick “cool new features” of Office 2007.

I love my job!  One of the nicest part of it is… having accessing to a whole bunch of people smarter than me (I take comfort that I’m better looking).  During a visit to Redmond a few months back, Microsoft Research showed the attendees of our internal TechReady conference a project called “GroupShot”.  It allows you to take a bunch of not-so-good photos, pick out the best parts of each and make one good photo.  It comes in really handy when someone in the photo has their…[more ]

Understanding functional requirements is hard enough… getting support shouldn’t be.  You’ll be surprised how easy it is to find answers to your questions online.  I’ve been developing on the.NET since its earliest days and the majority of my learnings / problem resolutions have been through my online and community friends.  This short video shows you the tools I use to quickly find answers and code samples (search engines, managed newsgroups and MSDN Forums) plus details for a…[more ]
