There was some talk Wednesday night at Fox & Hound about Internet Explorer 8, and I wanted to share these videos for those interested in seeing what’s new and cool.

Videos – IE 8 First Look
March 21, 2008
Twitter and Darth Vader
March 9, 2008
Sunday morning, pretty day outside. Meeting was canceled due to snow-removal issues, so that injects some extra free time in my day. But the Daylight Saving Time change took some of that free time back away. And this freaky early DST has me checking my watch every 20 minutes, which feels weird and is messing [...]
Video – Microsoft Conference Call
February 2, 2008
I sit on a lot of conference calls and Live Meetings with Microsoft. Now you know what’s happening in ‘the snap’ before the conference: Bet you’ll never look at being on hold before a conference call the same way again Props: Thanks to ‘grandpa’ (Grey Lancaster) for the link! Rating 3.00 out of 5
MVP Profile – Now With Monkeys
January 14, 2008
Well, it’s been almost two weeks since I got the news of the SBS-MVP award for 2008 (my first). Yeah, I was shocked too. It’s been pretty cool so far, with lots, and lots, and LOTS of email to read. They call it ‘The Firehose’. And they’re not kidding. In fact, here is a video [...]
Download – Office Mobile 6.1 Misadventures
November 30, 2007
Chris, scooped me on this today, but my post has became a tragedy involving crushed hopes and dreams for mo-bettah Office 2007 love on my WM5 PPC. I hope you fare better and have a smooth upgrade. Me? Notsomuch. Title: Microsoft Office Mobile 6.1Subtitle: Upgrade for Microsoft Office 2007 file formatsFile Name: OfficeMobile_Licensed_0409_US.msi Version: 6.1 [...]
Video – Seam Carving and Liquid Rescale
November 28, 2007
Seam carving is one of those new technologies that you have to see to understand. I’ve heard this called “content-aware image resizing”, “retargeting” “rescaling”, etc., and those names fall flat. You really need to see this – it’s just too cool to even try to describe: Pretty nice, eh? Wanna try it yourself? Download The [...]
Geek Squad Employee Busted
April 12, 2007
Usually, technology and convergence of digital devices are wonderful things. But when a Best Buy Geek Squad employee abuses technology to *allegedly* use his cell phone to video record a female customer showering in their own home, that’s disgusting. Just imagine if that was your wife or sister – it’s unbelievable! Best Buy does background & credit [...]
Schoolhouse Rock Meets WGA
January 25, 2007
Chris doesn’t call me Doctor Codec for nothing – I LOVE playing with video and audio, especially when it’s of the Geek flavor. Today I found this video (run time 5:00) on the Microsoft Software Piracy Protection website, and it just smacked of Schoolhouse Rock, sans music, so I had to share it with everyone. It’s [...]
No Geek Left Behind – Episode 005
November 25, 2006
After SMB Nation wrapped up, geeks from around the globe split up and went their separate ways. Some went back to the hotel to relax, some had to catch a plane, and others went to parties, etc. But nearly a dozen geeks hung out together for a special behind-the-scenes tour arranged by Allen Miller and the [...]
No Geek Left Behind – Episode 003
August 30, 2006
Episode 003 gets a touch of class with a brief voice over intro from our favorite UK SMB girl across the pond, Susanne Dansey. (Thanks Susanne!) And after that high point, everthing pretty much goes down hill. But seriously, 003 is a video tour inside the Microsoft Across America (MSAM) Technology Truck / Bus / [...]
