| For any wondering, I removed the user section of the site, I decided that maintaining user accounts was a little overkill. Your comments are still there, and you can still comment, the creation of a profile just has been removed, if you have any thoughts, let me know. |
| One Month Later April 09, 2008 8:10pm in thoughts |
It's been one month since my Grandfather passed away, and since, I am always thinking about him. He was a great person and will always be missed. For those of you who still have your grandparents, or any family for that matter, remember that we only have so much time on this Earth: make sure to let them know how much they mean to you. |

| Balloons April 07, 2008 10:39am in photos |
So it was a co-worker's birthday today so I figured I'd give her something to smile about. I bought balloons and covered her floor in them. Sadly I couldn't fill her cubicle up as I wanted to do due to logistics problems in getting the balloons into the office as bags could only fit so much let alone my car itself. Either way, it was successful, but not as "big" as I was hoping for or wanted. Anyway, happy birthday Lauren!

| Microsoft Announces Office for Linux April 01, 2008 9:50am in tech |
Microsoft today just announced that they will be releasing their latest version of Office for Linux operating systems. Microsoft, probably scared about OpenOffice's rise in popularity among open source advocates decided it was in their best interest to release a version that could run on Linux and presumably BSD. Microsoft is labeling this version of Office "Microsoft Office 2008 Linux Edition". It will have most of the features that Office 2007 and the OS X version, Office 2008 including the ability to read and write the .docx format. Also included is Outlook so Linux users will be able to easily connect to Microsoft Exchange servers. Microsoft Developer Lirpa Sloof, the lead developer in the move to a Linux version of Office was elated that he could be such a big part of the project. Despite the fact that I work for Microsoft, and do like the Windows environment, I still like where open source software is heading nowadays and now I'll be able to use Microsoft Office on my Ubuntu Desktop as well. While there is no definitive pricing information, an insider source has said that Office 2008 Linux Edition will cost $75. Will this be enough to convert people from OpenOffice? Read about it here.
