Dear Video Diary,Here it is.. the last day of TechEd 2008 US IT Pro. This morning I got together with some teammates and had a little video/screencasting/editing/publishing discussion. (Thanks Keith!) Then I took one of my coworkers to the airport. I did get back in time to attend one more session. It was an Instructor-Lead … Continue reading Kevin’s TechEd Video Diaries – Part 5 of 5 – June 13, 2008

Mongo-Cool Screencast on Slipstreaming IE 8 into a Windows Vista SP1 Image
My teammate Matt “Mongo” Hester just posted a pretty cool demo screencast on the process of adding bits (in this case, the currently-in-beta next version of Internet Explorer) into an offline image of Windows Vista. Yes.. “offline” because it’s an installation of Vista that exists in a .wim file. So we’re applying IE 8 as … Continue reading Mongo-Cool Screencast on Slipstreaming IE 8 into a Windows Vista SP1 Image
Kevin’s TechEd Video Diaries – Bonus Reel

I had another scheduled for the afternoon, but the interviewee … Continue reading Kevin’s TechEd Video Diaries – Part 4 – June 12, 2008
Kevin’s TechEd Video Diaries – Part 3 – June 11, 2008
Dear Video Diary,This was a busy day. I was originally scheduled to do three video interviews. It turned into 4, and then 5! So I spent a lot of time in a comfy chair, with a not-so-comfy microphone attached to my head. Really enjoyed the conversations, though. I hope you take a moment to check … Continue reading Kevin’s TechEd Video Diaries – Part 3 – June 11, 2008

Twouble twying to Twitter?
Web 2.0. Social Bookmarking. Social internetworking. I finally have some "downtime" (translation: I'm not traveling. I'm working from home. And I don't have any pressingly urgent events to gear up for at the moment), so I thought I'd try out some of the cool ways people are communicating and keeping-tabs with each other online.MySpace? Yep.. … Continue reading Twouble twying to Twitter?

Two things my youngest daughter loves: Music and Animals
Just for fun...I'm on a "Cool Stuff" DL (distribution list) internally at Microsoft, where coworkers share cool things they find on the Internet or within the company. Some of the "stuff" is business-related, but mostly the subjects range between the insanely-geeky to the just-plain-fun. This one is the latter.A "spec spot" (speculative advertisement) was created … Continue reading Two things my youngest daughter loves: Music and Animals
