Many have writting about Tim Berners-Lee, “the father of the web”, being Knighted – which is pretty wild. (heck, I guess if they could Knight a Rolling Stone – why not an I.T. superstar?) Halley Suitt has a funny perspective on this as Berners-Lee’s children go to the same school as Halley’s son. That’s got to be pretty strange to have someone you see at the grocery store suddenly becoming a “Sir”.

More Microsoft Hires…
Addy Santo – A fellow blogger from NYC who keeps trying to tempt me to travel south for u.g. meetings and other Manhattan based events. Poor Addy. He just doesn’t realize that after 8 years of living large in NYC, I live in Vermont for a reason now! 🙂
Robert Levy – one of the youngest MVPs (mobile), Student Ambassador and chief of SmartPhoneThoughts.com. Robert was the winner of “who has the most pocket pc devices with them” at the MVP Regional Summit in L.A. just before PDC. Robert and I had emailed, but actually talked briefly on the plane into L.A. without introduction and therefore didn’t realize who we were! We had a good laugh at that when we saw each other at the MVP summit.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing from more in the next weeks.
