After a long and very much needed hiatus, I have regained control of this blog and returned to blogging. For the curious reader, you can read about some of the happenings here . But, I am not one for dwelling on the past (except to learn and improve upon); Read More...
Annually, the IIS team gathers at Emily's house on the shores of lake Sammamish to enjoy a day of fun under under the sun. We call it "water day", and it has been a team tradition for at least as long as I have been on the IIS team. Its organization, Read More...
Lately, I have not been making frequent blog posts. There are good reasons, of course... and I will get to disclosing them in the near future. Recently, I have been spending a lot of time house-hunting. Yeah, I have decided that it is about time for me Read More...
Ok, maybe this is something you business/marketing types understand intrinsically... but it is something that I do not understand, so please bear with me. Why do people complain about getting something for free that used to require money? I thought people Read More...
Back in this blog entry , I mused about the nice Audio over RDP feature. It is pretty sweet to have secure, remote access to one's audio collection. Well, I recently started playing with RDP over the new TS Gateway on Vista Server, and I have to say that Read More...
Ok, I know that I just purchased an IBM X41 Tablet last fall, but I am in the market for a new laptop again. No, nothing wrong with my computers... I am just going to be giving the X41 to my younger sister so that she can use it during Law School the Read More...
Gosh, how quickly time flies by. It seems like yesterday when I was just getting started on this blog and typing out the entry for my 5-year anniversary at Microsoft. At that time, I had just finished doubling my number of blog entries, was in the midst Read More...
Nothing! Maybe it is just the summer-time lull, but I have not been terribly motivated to write anything lately. Alas, the IIS newsgroup has not been spawning anything interesting nor new in terms of issues either, and my private blog comments are starting Read More...
Hmm... it seems that ever since I made the blog entry about how to install PHP on IIS7, I seem to have become the default tech-support for PHP/IIS7 issues. That'll teach me to ever post beta guidance again - I just get more "help, I've fallen and I can't Read More...
Three months ago, I ranted in this blog entry about blog comment spam. Well, it appears that the arms race of allowing anonymous blog comments (which I deem highly important) has been steadily escalating, and the latest crop of blog comment spam are pretty Read More...
About twelve months ago, I started to hit a comfort zone with blogging. I had written a lot of initial content the prior two months, started to get a small number of private blog comments as well as a handful of comments to various posts, and I paid attention Read More...
Ok... I have just returned from my three week vacation in Europe. Jet-lag is kicking in about now, so I am going to sleep. I had a blast visiting London, Copenhagen, Berlin, Cologne, Brussels, Luxembourg, and Amsterdam... I will get to observations about Read More...
Well, it is time for me to take a vacation . For the next three weeks, I will be intentionally disconnected from technology and touring through a north/central Europe. Oh, yes, I need the break to disconnect and re-center myself. I have not done that Read More...
I started typing this as a response to this blog entry and then decided that I was investing a little too much of myself into the response... so here goes. The original question was about "how to install Virtual Server, install its VSWebApp.exe component, Read More...
I started posting this as a blog response elsewhere, and then I decided that I was having way too much fun composing it to leave it stranded as a mere comment... so here is my take on Product Team Roles at Microsoft. Yes, read it with a grain of salt, Read More...
