Lots of people are up in arms about Microsoft’s attempt to hold onto their new UI paradigm for a while with a crazy licensing scheme. I’m wondering when I’m going to have time to read, digest and implement their 120 pages of guidelines! Read more ….

Rich and I saw Borat last night and I couldn’t agree more with Charles Petzold’s assessment:
If Mr. Cohen’s intent is to explore people’s reactions in intolerable situations, then it makes no sense for this movie to have scenes of Borat by himself, or with his “producer.” And yet, Mr. Cohen has obviously become so enamored of his fictional creation that the movie really becomes about Borat rather than his American victims.
I found the movie nearly intolerable myself. Excluding a few scenes that seemed pretty real (the homeboys teaching him how to dress a little more homey and the very human Lunelle and everyone’s incredible patience) Cohen’s version of “Candid Camera” was over the top, but not really in what I saw as an intellectual or enlightening way. His outrageous public behavior was just outright mean and not funny. So much commentary of the movie is about how he tricked people on camera, but the ruse goes much further. He tricked us into the movie theater to shock us too. I’m pretty liberal and extremely tolerant, but there was way more in that movie than I felt like witnessing and nearly walked out. I truly feel duped that I got lured into the theater with all of this promise of some fascinating expose of human behavior. And to top it off, I have now paid my $8 and brought my husband (who was hoping to see James Bond instead), and therefore contributed to the success of the movie. The joke has been on all of us, not just the “characters” in the movie.
No, this is not a Koolaid induced post. It is really true. I have been saying it to friends and realized I should blog about it. So I did over here.

I have posted the powerpoints and demos from my four talks at DevConnections last week.
They are all on http://www.thedatafarm.com/talks.aspx.
Each session is listed alphabetically. At the end of the session description you will find a link for the PowerPoint deck and for the zip file with the demos.
The four sessions I just posted are:
I LOVED this book. It is one of those that I found myself reading until 2 or 3am in the morning (and then sleeping late because of it). I won’t be going, but just thought I would share in case other locals read my blog but not the Free Press where I learned about this.
Vista madness (that which comes when Vista is released to MSDN subscribers….(yesterday)) is not quite like Playstation madness, but I’m sure lots of people will be so eager to get their new bits that they might forget this very important piece of information…. read more

The front page of the Burlington Free Press showed a guy pitching a tent for his second night camping out in front of Best Buy in Williston (where all the big box stores are just outside of Burlington). Sheesh. Not the swarms we’ve seen on the national media though. Just 20 or 30.
