So when I asked about smart client applications, I thought that I'd learn something new or find out about some great new tools. Sadly, I really didn't. Scoble points to a bunch of aggregator-style applications, and the comments didn't really point out the types of examples that I would expect to see. I KNOW what a smart client is- show me...

While I won't comment on unreleased products in a specific way, I wonder what people think of these concepts. For example, how would you use an Excel Server product? Are there things that you'd use the Excel Server for...

I ran into a bunch of folks, but only one that has a weblog- Steve Maine. I hadn't seen Steve since our visit to building 42 last month, but it is nice to see him. For those that want to...

Steve Maine posts an interesting follow up to Clemen's earlier post, Rows and Columns + Elements and Attributes is all you need. My favorite quote: "As collective industry experience has shown, handing polymorphic data with language techniques optimized for polymorphic behavior is tricky at best.
