We’ve always been a multi-operating system studio. In our menagerie of OSes we include XP, Vista, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Win Mobile, Palm OS and the iPhone. About a month ago we were able to add Windows 7 Beta and have become quite impressed.
Microsoft Betas have always been a mixed bag, I remember playing around with the Win 95 beta as early as 93 and experiencing frequent crashes and BSoDs, but that (my techie logic said) is the price of working on the bleeding edge of technology, and at the time there was little doubt of the impressive leap forward that 95 was over 3.11.

Our company hosts one of my favorite web comics CommissionedComic.com. It’s very nerdy fare full of inside geek jokes and D&D themes. It’s also very funny and I read it daily. I got a an IM from Obsidian, the comic’s artist early today asking me to look at his RSS code because some of his readers were having trouble with the feed. I subscribed to it and everything worked fine, then took a look at the generating PHP and it seemed to be working perfectly as well.
We’ve decided to keep the “problem” whichever it might be, unsolved for now and get some more feedback from users.
My best guess is that Continue reading »
