I've been building a demo today of using Microsoft InfoPath to author content in CMS using Web Services. InfoPath made it so easy in design mode to query the web service and use the WSDL information returned to identify the fields required to construct the authoring form. And because CMS is built on ASP.NET, creating a Web Service to support a 'Add News Item' method was simple too. An example CMS WebService is available on GotDotNet.

If you have a beefy machine - try out the Windows Media High Definition demos . The video most of us are used to seeing on our TV sets today is called standard definition, whereas high-def video has as many as 1,080 visible lines of detail. High-def video looks sharper and clearer than regular video especially on big-screen displays. It actually comes in two different resolutions, called 1080p and 720p. Most of the talk around high-def has been associated with HDTV. But you can get high-def video today on a capable Windows XP-based PC ... you can be watching movies in amazing quality, up 6 times that of today's DVD!

Microsoft is set to take the wraps off the latest version of Windows Services for UNIX V3.5 technology this week. SFU is a collection of more than 300 Unix utilities, tools and cross-platform services.
