Dear OneNote, I love you but I think we should see other people
I’ve adored OneNote for many years, but have found that lately it hasn’t been able to keep up with the pace of change in technology.

When I upgraded Chrome this morning I saw a cupcake. Why does Google Chrome show a cupcake?
Update: I spent the morning debugging the issues I mentioned below with CloudFlare, and was stunned by two things: Firstly, the service from CloudFlare was amazing! As I was leaving the service I sent them a note to let them know what had happened. Less than an hour later I got a thoughtful and thorough …
Today at the All Things Digital Conference Microsoft shared a first look at Windows 8. As you can see from the demo below, it’s a decidedly different experience for Windows.

Not two minutes after posting an overview of how to do this, Dreamhost went down and took Technology Poet with it. Dreamhost.com was down, as was FTP access to my site so …
Recently I upgraded a few of my Wordpress websites to run on Amazon’s EC2, thanks in no small part to Dan Ackerson’s wonderful guide on how to migrate your Wordpress blog to EC2. This is probably the point where I wax poetic about the wonder of cloud services, and how Amazon has enabled even a …
News of the hour: Microsoft aquires Nokia. I wonder if embedding former employees in high level positions at other companies was a strategy at the time, or just coincidence?
