On Microsoft's Transparency in 2004 (Dec 02 2004 23:55 GMT) - Sir Black Xero (?!?) has a review of Microsoft's increasing openness in 2004, summarizing it this way: "Granted, there are plenty of Microsoft teams that are still opaque when it comes to their roadmaps.

Nixon Knew He Was A Crook... (Dec 02 2004 23:55 GMT) - but it wasn't until Woodward and Bernstein shared it with the world that he did anything about it. Now that we've got an Avalon that works with Windows XP and Visual Studio, if there's something about it that you don't like, blog about it or post to the Avalon newsgroup. Cry out loud! Don't keep it inside. Don't learn how to hide your feelings... |

Animating Custom Types in Avalon (Dec 02 2004 23:55 GMT) - Ian Griffiths illustrates the core concepts in Avalon animation by implementing a custom font size animation class. Basically, "animation" in Avalon means "changing an object's value over a range in a given time," e.g. changing a font size from 10 to 72 in 4 seconds or an X coordinate from 10 to 100 in 2 seconds. Animation seemed so fancy to me until I broke it down in my head in this way. |

Ut å stjæle tekster (Dec 02 2004 23:55 GMT) - Eirik Newth har allerede kommentert den estetiske siden ved Microsofts bloggetjeneste MSN Spaces, og jeg har lite å tilføye om den siden av saken. Det kommer ikke som noen overraskelse at bloggene som kommer ut av dette heller ikke følger tekniske standarder. Boing Boing har en kort omtale som også påpeker at Microsoft har satt noen vilkår for bruk av tjenesten som minner litt om det jeg skrev om Orkut tidligere i år. I praksis blogger brukerne av MSN Spaces gratis for Microsoft. |

I'm amazed (Dec 02 2004 23:54 GMT) - I think someone else posted this a while back.
