For some bizarre reason, the thought at the top of my head last night at bedtime was… “I wonder if sometimes… open source developers deliberately code bugs or withhold fixes for financial gain?”
If you don’t follow what I mean, here’s where I was: often times, large corporations or benefactors will offer a code fix bounty [...]
For those of you who follow my adventures here, but not necessarily my adventures over there, you should be aware that we’ve posted NO CARRIER Episode #11. This episode is very special to my heart because it’s the first show we did in our new studio (Whitey is still over Skype though). I think the [...]
Are you curious about the hard stats of messages running around your organization?
Try this one in powershell on your hub transport server:
get-messagetrackinglog -start “mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss” -end “mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss” -eventid “send” -resultsize 9999999 | measure-object

One item you’ve probably learned by now if you’re an Exchange admin working on a 2007 deployment is that Microsoft has changed the behavior of the recipient update policy. Most of you won’t care about this and that’s just fine. You shouldn’t. I would dare say that if your Exchange environment is engineered well and [...]
Continuing my recent tradition of expressing what are likely to be fairly unpopular opinions with my peers, tonight I’m going to rag on Google’s “Chrome” project and tell you why this is a Bad Idea ™. I’ll try to keep this short (update: I failed). This is considered to be a discussion starter, not a [...]

Once again, the iPhone rules the press with a heavy dollop of enticing news.
There’s a lot here on the surface and a lot below the surface. Let’s scratch the surface first.
The announcements about Apple licensing ActiveSync are interesting. There was lots of speculation in this regard and greetz to those who called it. [...]
