.Mac Webmail revamp

For .Mac subscribers like myself (4 years and going strong!) I was pleasantly surprised by the new look and feel and functionality of .Mac webmail. Having logged in to Webmail for the first time in a good little while at the weekend I came across a whole new ans hiny interface. Drag and drop, flagging, [...]

Presenting at EMC Momentum 2006 in Rome

I’ve put a blog post about my presentation of EMC’s Momentum 2006 conference over at SharePoint Blogs. It seemed to ‘fit’ there better than at Menori. I had a fascinating time and might have actually stirred some real changes in the world of Enterprise Content Management. Using Documentum with SharePoint was certainly the hot topic [...]

Simple, but addictive

Simple games have never been out of fashion. Pong makes a comeback on mobile phones, breakout too. And heavy Javascript allows simple but truly addictive games in your Web browser.
Take this game for instance. Found via del.icio.us I spent atleast… oooh, three minutes playing it.
Now have a fuzzy computer speech synethesised voice say “Another visitor… [...]

EMC Momentum 2006

It’s been a crazy week. For one, I’ve moved home which has thoroughly tired me out. But I’m re-invigorating myself for my trip to Rome for EMC’s Momemtum 2006.

BrowseUp, Scopeware - Web 2.0 tools before their time

Wayback in mists of time (well about the end of 2001) I did a blog post on a blog I wrote called ‘Life’ on Blogger. The post was entitled ‘Blogs.. the future of the user interface’. It was realisation for me that blogs could become something rather special. By ‘user interface’ I was really referring [...]

Morrowind had expansions. It is inevitable, simply because of the popularity that Oblivion will have expansions.
To date there has been much speculation about official expansions. Gamespot reported an expansion called ‘Knights of the White Stallion’. That sparked some reaction from various bloggers (kotaku, and videogamesblogger to name two) and excited responses from Oblivion fans.

It’s been around for a while but I decided to install the latest version of Live OneCare on my Media Center PC.

The immediate effect of this was that it blocked the connection with my Xbox 360. My Xbox 360 wouldn’t even connect anymore. Live OneCare seesm clever enough to automatically allow various Microsoft products through [...]

GigaOM reports that Schillings thinks that the platform for innovation [...]

The broken Internet

In five years time the Internet is likely to be very different from what it is now. This is no reference to the stark changes we’ve seen on the Internet in the last five years. Broadband, open standards, Web 2.0 and Google are all pale in comparison to what could happen. And I’m not [...]

Shiny happy Maria Sansome
