I finally caved, after months and months and months of nagging by embee. I signed up for Twitter. I must admit it is slightly addictive, but I hope not to end up being a Twitter Shitter. So, from now on, also check out my Twitter page. I'll be mostly dumping my various one-liner thoughts about technology, mostly because im usually to lazy to write a full blog post about it.

They call me Sieb,

They call me Sibe,

They call me Seibe,

They call me Sybe,

 

That's not my name,

That's not my name,

 

They call me Tolsman,

They call me Tolsa,

 

Thats not my.. name!

Check out http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wlmessengerapidev/threads/. They have, by far, one of the best question/answer ratios of the MSDN forums. There's perhaps only one or two questions which haven't been answered yet. Cool!

Anyone who is using IE CSS extensions, or CSS attributes which haven't been fully defined or accepted by W3C yet should cehck out the following blog post from the Internet Explorer team: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/09/08/microsoft-css-vendor-extensions.aspx. The page discusses the new IE8 CSS extensions, which will now be prefixed with "-ms-", similar to "-moz-" for Mozilla, and so forth.

 

Your page will still render fine in compatibility mode (which was heavily discussed a few months ago).

 

Also, kudos to the IE team for actively blogging about their new product this way! I wish other product teams, especially those in Windows Live, did the same.

I totally agree with this blog post. 

 

What can I say? I love my Zune. It's big music library has given me several very good recommendations, and I especially like the "similar artists", "similar albums", and so forth, features. What I like even more is the ability to look up other frequent listeners of a particular album or artist.. I found a lot of great new songs that way.

 

I think I'll switch to a newer Zune model sometime in the near future though -- I still have the "v1" (i.e. 30GB) one.
