Greetings again from WWDC 2007. Those of you who know me know that I’ve made my living thus far as a Windows admin. I’ve always had a particular bent toward messaging technologies and I do have certifications in the Microsoft space to prove that I can architect these solutions. The project I am working on [...]

I spoke with a developer here at WWDC who is deploying Exchange 2007. He said that the Linux/UNIX folks on Evolution are finding it impossible to use due to some kind of webdav issues introduced with Exchange 2007. I’ve not yet had a chance to test/play with this to look into it deeper. I will [...]

Last night I attended the MacBU WWDC 2007 reception. It was quite the party. I met the new GM of MacBU, Craig Eisler. He’s a very energetic fellow. One fo the MacBU devs described him as “kinetic.” That’s probably accurate. We spoke a little bit about issues with Entourage that plague our mail system, but [...]

I’ve heard/read many people project the death of the Mac Mini. After spending half a week here at WWDC, I’d like to inform you that I don’t believe this to be the case. Mac Minis have proven to be quite the useful little box here at WWDC. They are set up as cheapo terminals for [...]

I am in the process of adding a few more photos of WWDC 2007. In particular, these pictures are of waiting in line for the keynote. I have videos of that too… but… gee, who wants to see a bunch of geeks waiting in line? I also have video of portions of the keynote (like [...]

So today was the keynote and I have to admit – it was a little underwhelming. Most of the chatter I heard around the show today seemed to share that sentiment. The excitement was pretty good surrounding the newer features – specifically the new Finder, Cover Flow integration, Time Machine and Core Animation. It’s cool [...]

So we journeyed down the hill from our hotel to Moscone Center West to get a gander of WWDC 2007 and register for the show. Many folks had the same idea – they were streaming in from everywhere with excited looks on their faces. Many of them registered and immediately unpacked their laptops – perhaps [...]

Greetings from San Francisco. It’s been a long trip, but we finally made it in to the hotel. We’re in downtown San Francisco – in the Westin St. Francis across from Union Square. This is a nice, nice hotel… and downtown SFO is quite lively, but there’s also plenty of homeless folks here begging on [...]
