Twenty-One Days Wrap-up

Okay, I didn't post for a while. I last posted, last month.

I normally would want to cover all the stuff I had commentary on and whatnot, but I only have two points of less then current news, and some more recent stuff at the end.

There was the security scare with Vista that was WAY overblown. These people (the journalists who wrote the "sky is falling" arguments) must really need something to be wrong with Windows Vista that isn't there.

Sinofsky started blogging about Windows 7. I see it as their prep for PDC and WinHEC. We might learn something big too.

For more current news, I have two more points.

Photosynth went public. Bloggers have been in love with this thing for a while now. Need I say more then "here is a link"?

Microsoft's ad campaign that was supposed to launch late last month has been a no-show, with the only major ad related thing being Mojave, and that isn't even related to the CP+B push that we are supposed to have seen drop already.

Thankfully, we now have some more news on it.

Apparently Microsoft is going to call it "Windows Not Walls" according to... a Wall Street Journal article about it.

Jokes aside, it apparently is going to feature a few people you may have heard of, like Seinfeld to help them speak, and will probably be done in a style like that of Bill Gates Last Day video, going so far as to include Bill Gates himself.
