After several years of minimal upgrades, the highly acclaimed Western Digital Raptor has gotten a serious upgrade: Enter the WD VelociRaptor , which wasn't supposed to be released to the masses until mid June but is available now over at Newegg . I've been a subscriber to Jeff Atwood's line...

I've been out of work this week sick (which really sucks...I don't do very well with idle time, plus I haven't been sick enough to miss work in many years), so what better time to catch up on some blogging. We had an interesting scenario at work recently whereby we needed to dynamically attach...

As promised, I've decided to type up a short series on my interviewing process with Microsoft. I've talked before about it, however that was from a perspective of just screening and not actually landing the position. I am by no means an expert on interviews, or getting the dream job and as such...

I posted a while back about the Feedburner MyBrand service ...I've been taking it for a spin on some other low traffic feeds and am nothing less than blown away, so JK.com is now Feedburner enabled and ready to rock. Community Server 2007 has built in support for Feedburner out of the box; it's...
