Found via Aussie UX Evangelist, Shane Morris, get free online Expression training from lynda.com.  The course covering the RTM version of Expression Blend looks good to me.  I'll have to get to it afterward.  Right now, I'm enjoying the WPF virtual bootcamp CD (Disc 3) that came with my MIX 07 goodies.  If you ...

At MIX07 one of the sessions that I went to see was one by Clement Mok, titled ''Fumbling towards AGENCY 2.0'', it was a fantastic presentation.  I was looking at it from a software architects perspective and jotted this down in my moleskine during his talk.

I finally got my Samson Podcasting Kit.  It's been a week.  I'll post pictures, setup, a review and a test podcast later this week. However, waiting on the kit reminded me of something that we may not think about when dealing with Software Design.  How other services color the impression of your software.  For ...

I saw this on Gizmodo today and it looks like Adobe took a page from the number of versions available for Vista. Check out the table at the bottom of the page at Amazon for the number of versions.  Wow, you could go to MIX 07 and get a copy of Vista Ultimate and Expression Suite for the price of the Master Collection and have beer money left ...
