I just posted the first post on a series of post on my thoughts about IT/Software as a career on my personal blog.

I have been using Beta 2 of IE7 for almost a week now. No major crashes and it is quite stable. No major changes to the UI compared to the Beta 2 preview. I think the new list of open tabs is appearing as a dropdown menu near the Quick Tabs is new though. The major irritant for me in this release is the changes made due to the law suit relating...

I was reading thru some of the newsletters that I get and I come up against this piece of code The Infamous Hello World Program. Romeo, a young man with a remarkable patience. Juliet, a likewise young woman of remarkable grace. Ophelia, a remarkable woman much in dispute with Hamlet. Hamlet, the flatterer of Andersen Insulting A/S. Act I:...

Robert Scoble is down here for a few days and he invited me to go with him to this event. It was a fun event (I enjoy talking tech and so it was fun). So thanks for that Scoble... You can...

I just installed a newer build of Vista to try out. The first roadblock I hit was to get my modem working. I use a AirTel DSL connection, that uses a Globespan Virata ADSL modem.

It announced that Virtual Server 2005 R2 would now be a free download. So now the fight for the virtualization space has started...
