I love testing new stuff out. No, it´s not always perfect, but neither is the software I write myself. Making software perfect is a process of developing, getting it our there, reading your users´ responses and correcting the bits you´ve missed. It´s like that for me, it´s like that for Microsoft.

En jawel. Vandaag was het dan weer zover. Dit keer had ik een dame aan de telefoon die mij nogmaals probeerde te overtuigen van het prachtige aanbod wat ik heb gekregen van Vodafone.

Eens in de twee jaar sta ik weer voor een enorme opgave: het kiezen van een nieuwe telefoon. Wellicht denk je “ach, als dat je grootste probleem is…”, gelijk heb je. Maar toch, als gadgetnerd is het gewoon moeilijk om uit al het moois de juiste keuze te maken. Gelukkig zijn er de vrienden van

Not too long ago I wrote a corporate blog post (Dutch) about Windows 8 and why I love the idea.

Today, Microsoft officially anounced that shared core at their Windows Phone 8 conference. Yay! Not going

Today we ran into a weird problem. People reported not having access to their personal documents library on their MySite. So I checked, the Personal Documents library ACL was empty for that particular user. But for other users, I noticed where were some entried, just not their own user account and always Limited rights (which
