Building my own internet radio channels - Jango Social Music
A friend sent me to a new internet radio site – www.jango.com.
Basically, it lets you create different internet radio channels based on bands and songs you like.
It also adds a social dimension where you can listen to your friend’s channels
Backing Up My Apple Analysis
I’ve already written my thoughts about the disruption of Apple TV coupled with the iTunes Movie Rental.
That being said I decided to back this bet on Apple with some money and bought some 50 shares last week at $162.98 – my first investment outside TSE ever 🙂

Facebook Fan Page - Add Community Features to Your Blog
I’ve been playing around with creating a Facebook Fan Page for my blog – https://www.facebook.com/pages/DeveloperZencom/10649455588

Besides aggregating my blog’s posts and my Google Reader’s posts to applications on the page I can also notify readers on events, and have a discussion going on using the Discussion Board or The Wall application

Short Introduction to Powershell

Got a Visual Studio 2008 "Thank You" Cube
When I came to the office today I had a package waiting on my desk with its content marked as “crystal cube”.
I was surprised to open it and find a “Thank You” note and a crystal cube from the Visual Studio 2008 team for “lasting contribution you made to Microsoft Visual Studio”
Working on my Haduken Skills...
Some games are timeless. Street Fighters is one of these games. I can probably dub it as my favorite game as a kid, spending hours at the arcade or on my friend’s Nintendo.
Link Blogging Using Google Reader Just Got More Interesting...
I’ve mentioned before my Google Reader Links Blog.
I can easily share links from blogs I read on Google Reader instead of filling my blog with link posts.
