1. Windows Home Server from Tranquil PC

A Geek’s 4.5 Days in Perth
Tuesday, August 14th, 2007Whilst driving from Perth airport to the Hotel on Sunday, I determined that I haven't been in Perth since late 2005. Nearly 2 years. Perth is greener now.
My first visit to Perth was in 1993. I think I've been here at least 27 times through my last 4 employers.
The Duxton Hotel's high-speed internet access is [...]

Thursday, July 26th, 2007AIMIA: "Disruptive technology - your life mashed up. Decoding the consumer. "
Thanks to Mr Podcast, Leslie Nassar, there is a permanent record of the panel. More "represent" than "present". I hope I assisted people in thinking.

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007In ScottGu's comments to his excellent post, he mentions that Microsoft licensed some of the QuT Ruby.NET work! w00t! Aussie code lives inside IronRuby. Well done, Dr Wayne Kelly and team.
New Microsoft hire (starting in September), Scott Hanselman, is also getting into the Ruby-way.
Also, Miguel de Icaza gives a big tick to the project.

1 Million Geek March
Monday, July 2nd, 2007What is an Geek? Is Geek a pejorative term?
In the UK, being a trainspotter or anorak is definitely pejorative for those outside the craze. Duncan Riley uses the marketing term Prosumer (professional consumer).
If anyone comes up to me and calls me a Geek, I am proud. Having spent the last year breaking off the shackles of [...]
