post reliable update Jeff, I feel ya. And this was after the installation of the performance and reliability patches that were recently released. Truly mileage may vary ...

My Shared Links Feeds From Google Reader
Thursday, August 23, 2007 4:34 PM

I have switched over to Google Reader (after being a long time FeedDemon user) and am loving the browser-based access anywhere experience. While FeedDemon had great offline reading abilities, if I switched computers I was out of luck. It also doesn't have a sweet Blackberry reading option as does the web-based Google Reader.

Part of this switch also means that instead of laboriously re-posting items I want to share to my blog I can SHIFT + S and easily add them to my shared feed. You can read it in a web view or subscribe to the RSS feed. Be warned: these are things I find interesting. Mileage may vary!

Windows Live Folders Beta Open
Wednesday, August 01, 2007 2:33 PM

  The Windows Live Folders team has opened its beta for new testers. lf3

I have been looking around and immediately I am taken aback by what seems like the requirement to upload your files one-by-one! As I browse around I see no options to upload a directory or folder's worth of files. This definitely needs addressing pronto Live Folders team. LF1

PS Raise the quota while you are at it. 500 MB is pitiful. I am prepared to pay. You also get the ability to create folders in which to organize your content.

lf2

I am curious to investigate further and see if the FolderShare client and sync functionality will be integrated or remain a separate offering. There is a component to allow the private and public sharing of folders and you are shown the URL of your content as it applies to the various folders.
