Very cool to see Robert in mainstream media!!

The author mentions tablet pc’s in passing:

[At NEC,] Mr Scoble’s area of expertise was tablet PCs—laptop computers that allow users to handwrite their notes, and that have been mostly a dud, both then and now.

Sad to see that in the same article since Robert is such a huge tablet pc enthusiast and evangelist.

Somehow I managed to get home last night at the scheduled time. The previous plane that was supposed to fly into Burlington was diverted to Albany, so I was lucky.

Powder day today! Though one morning of skiing through heavy powder was more than enough for me.

VSLive/Windows Anywhere was a blast. Lots to learn, everyone to see, new people to meet. Walt Ritscher posted some pictures from Wednesday night’s dinner when I *finally* got to get some sushi. Apologies to Sam Gentile since I neglected to call to let him know where we landed after I had had a few too many sakes.

I finally saw a Wacom digitizer that is a small device you can plug into your desktop and have inking capablities. I am definitely going to get one since I spend most of my time at my desk using my desktop computer.

The MS Tablet Team put together a great event Tuesday night at a very cool art gallery called Varnish.

This was after a long weekend in Seattle for the INETA working group meeting which Chris Pels blogged about and a few days of hanging out before heading to SF. I went on the Underground Tour of Seattle with Chris Wallace. It was fantastic and I highly recommend it. What a bizarre history Seattle has!

So now I am just trying to catch up with the emails then I’m off to Boston for Web Services Edge East on Tuesday then NYC to see a client the next week, then back to Boston for  Code Camp a few weeks after that and then Orlando for DevConnections a few weeks after that. That’s a lot of travelling for me, but nothing compared to what Kimberly Tripp rattled off the other evening!

After making a small adjustment during an Indigo talk Don Box says: “If I flex, it won’t pop off.”

Steve Swartz was really hoping that quote would get blogged with no context. Happy to oblige. 😉

Ooh – this I gotta see! I still have a lot to learn about WSE2 and hearing every possible different person’s perspective even on the intro stuff is always helping me grok this all more and more. Even though I’m speaking at Windows Anywhere, I get to go to VSLive sessions as well. There will be so much to choose from. Lots of new content.

Not only is it full articles on Web Services and WSE 2.0, but it means that the April issue is next!! 🙂
