So I met Scoble II
I use Newsgator, make of it what you will. So I start this post about meeting Scoble [he doesn’t mind being addressed in first person as Scoble, I need to ask him if it’s something to do with branding] and because my life can get hectic in the middle of releasing some security bits to the world, I stop the post and move on to the next urgent ***** - Insert anything that can interrupt your average hard working Microsoft information worker. Long story short, I have to close Outlook at some point and when I do, Newsgator posts my half scribbled musing without so much as a ‘by your leave’! How do I file a bug???!! The regular UX flow for Outlook is to ask you to save to drafts and not send an email or post to a public folder or whatever.
So I really met Scoble. He’s helping my team get some word out on channel 9 and he came to record an opinion video of a seasoned Program Manager on my team. I heard a lot of things about Scoble before I met him, and I think the best thing I can say is that is that he’s pretty normal; He’s a pleasant dude and I liked working with him. Now all I need is to get him to link to my blog……
I’m headed out to Los Angeles to see get some companies there excited about building on the People and Groups platform, our new Communications User Experience in Longhorn Since I’ve been traveling all weekend and came to work from the airport this morning, I’m looking forward to this like [unspecified noises and grumbling]….
Anyhow, more from the road and I will try to look on the bright side, if you insist.
