Not because I like the new one, but purely because I have some posts coming up which can’t display properly. Long method signatures and fancy LINQ queries tend to get cut off and don’t fit will in a confined space.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;For now, form wins over function. Hopefully I’ll have some time in the future to resolve that eternal battle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9467886" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/tags/Fun/default.aspx">Fun</category></item><item><title>Disowning a mesh folder</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/2009/02/04/disowning-a-mesh-folder.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 05 Feb 2009 01:54:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9396897</guid><dc:creator>benwilli</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/comments/9396897.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/commentrss.aspx?PostID=9396897</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Small tip: If you have a folder in your mesh that someone else shared to you before the permissions were updated to allow “read only” permissions, you are still an “owner” on the folder.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Today I was copying a 1.2GB folder around and accidentally dropped it onto someone else’s folder which I need read access to but I don't contribute to. After a minute I realized the problem and deleted the folder, but the news feed shows that I was an idiot and announced it to everyone on the folder.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Luckily this wasn’t personal data! Also, being an owner of the folder, I was able to manage the member’s list and kick myself off so now I’m just a reader.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/benwilli/WindowsLiveWriter/Disowningameshfolder_ECAC/image_2.png"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="image" border="0" alt="image" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/benwilli/WindowsLiveWriter/Disowningameshfolder_ECAC/image_thumb.png" width="216" height="855" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9396897" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/tags/Live+Mesh/default.aspx">Live Mesh</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/tags/Fun/default.aspx">Fun</category></item><item><title>Note to self: Plane travel</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/2009/02/04/note-to-self-plane-travel.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 04 Feb 2009 19:39:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9396094</guid><dc:creator>benwilli</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/comments/9396094.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/commentrss.aspx?PostID=9396094</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Never, never, never sit in front of &lt;a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/angus_logan/archive/2009/02/04/last-4769-mile-innovation-approaches-to-in-plane-productivity.aspx"&gt;Angus&lt;/a&gt; on a plane.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Corollary: If I do have to, make sure to proactively go after the bribe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9396094" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/tags/Fun/default.aspx">Fun</category></item><item><title>Wallpaper your desktop with Mesh</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/2008/11/12/wallpaper-your-desktop-with-mesh.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 12 Nov 2008 18:44:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9063047</guid><dc:creator>benwilli</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/comments/9063047.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/commentrss.aspx?PostID=9063047</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Due to popular demand, yesterday &lt;a href="http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/profile/?user=Vikas-Ahuja&amp;amp;referrer=http%3A//social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/liveframework/thread/3f60826f-8fdb-400b-8c0e-972abc64e52b/" target="_blank"&gt;Vikas&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/liveframework/thread/3f60826f-8fdb-400b-8c0e-972abc64e52b/" target="_blank"&gt;posted&lt;/a&gt; a zip file with a bunch of the various Live Mesh desktop backgrounds.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://dev.live.com/downloads/resources/LiveServicesBackgrounds.zip"&gt;http://dev.live.com/downloads/resources/LiveServicesBackgrounds.zip&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9063047" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/tags/Live+Mesh/default.aspx">Live Mesh</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/benwilli/archive/tags/Fun/default.aspx">Fun</category></item></channel></rss>
