Joel Dehlin, a former Microsoft employee and the CIO of the LDS church is conducting a series of tech talks. The next one is being planned for the bay area. If you are interested you can respond to his post here. The dates would be between April 22 – 26 with a tentative agenda as follows:
- Keynote
- Infrastructure breakout
- Development breakout
- Interaction Design breakout
- Community breakout
- Building to building video breakout
Everything needs a 12 step program now. CNN has a 12 step program to cure your email addiction here. I started thinking about this after Harry’s post saying he had hit zero email bounce prior to going on his secret mission.
I read an interesting blog on XNA and how it fits into Microsoft’s strategy in gaming. I am not sure I agree with all of the points, but I found the arguments to be compelling.
My BYU Cougars are now up to 21 in the AP Poll. I can’t think of a year when both the football and basketball teams have both had such successful seasons.
Between today and tomorrow I will be finalizing my vision document for how I think monitoring should work in the Service-Oriented Infrastructure project I am on. As I was outlining my vision it really hit me how much there is to do.
