Microsoft Silverlight told me to buy a new mac

May 1st, 2009 by James Sullivan | No Comments | Filed in Blog, Nerd

A site my wife needs for work recently overhauled their site using Microsoft Silverlight (didn’t say “upgraded”). My wife’s iBook G4 works perfectly for streaming video, email, calendar, and basically everything else a personal trainer would use.  Unfortunately, Microsoft decided the new version of Microsoft Silverlight should not support G4 macs.

It sounds to me like Microsoft Silverlight is telling me to buy a new mac, which I did.

ExactTarget Developers

I created integrations with ExactTarget for a client and found it was an up-hill battle to get information about their web services and rest interface.  The only way to get the documentation is behind lock and key, a private forum and knowledge-base called 3sixty that is slow, has no user participation, and if you are a freelancer it’s just another layer of overhead to get an account to talk to people there – probably the reason why there is virtually no user adoption.  :)

Since I see no merit in contributing code to a private forum that you have to buy in for the sake of that company, I bought a domain and put up a punBB forum to give people a public space to talk openly (like the Salesforce.com forums):

An editorial on The Wall Street Journal web site said this about Obama:

“he must start wearing the flag lapel pin. He simply cannot afford to raise doubts about his patriotism.”

Patriotism is represented by stickers and flags according to The Wall Street Journal?

Awesome Flash Puzzle Game

This Flash puzzle game about moving a block around is awesome. You don’t have to read all the instructions… it’s more fun to fall off the sides a couple times to get it. You have unlimited lives anyway – which is the way to play.
