Thursday, April 03, 2014. My question to Satya Nadella at Build. While I cannot be in San Francisco at the Microsoft Build conference this week, I still managed to virtually attend and ask Satya a question in the keynote. My question was 'what is the vision for Microsoft? I mentioned that when I started working with Microsoft over 20 years ago the vision was the bold ambition to put a computer on every desk. I was hoping for an equally bold vision statement from the new CEO of Microsoft, Satya Nadella.

Saturday, April 09, 2011. Another week of wonder. The last few weeks have been action packed, and each week seems to have more than the last. In the last month while in Sydney I have been to the Hotel, Hospitality and Design expo. And the EduCause expo. Both in Darling Harbour at the Sydney exhibition and convention center. The nsquared team in Sydney has been working on optimizing the nsquared education pack for Windows 7 touch. This has been done on a range of devices; HP Touchsmart desktops.

Friday, February 14, 2014. Second Gen Kinect for Windows. Fellow Kinect for Windows MVP, Tom Kerkhove, has written up a really great blog post on the second generation Kinect for Windows device. While a few of us have had access to this device and the development kit for a few months now, it is still a preproduction solution so things might change. Labels: Kinect for Windows.

Dr. Neil's Notes: MVP Award
http://drneil.blogspot.com/2014/04/mvp-award.html
Wednesday, April 02, 2014. I was excited this morning to receive an email notifying me that I had been re-awarded as a Kinect for Windows Microsoft MVP. I love the fact that Microsoft appreciates the work that people like myself do to help others use and understand the technology. I am looking forward to many more years of relationship building with Microsoft and developers around the world. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Dr. Neil's Notes: App Development Success
http://drneil.blogspot.com/2015/03/app-development-success.html
Friday, March 20, 2015. Last night I made a guest appearance on the AppBizDev podcast. To talk about some of the work I have been doing to help developers around the world build better software. It has been a while since I have talked about the work I am doing and it was a lot of fun. We discussed the way developers can do improve the applications they are delivering as well as improve their business model around the apps they have already delivered. Has been shipping in the last few years.

Saturday, July 30, 2011. Hardly any agile left in Agile. This is something has been nagging at my mind in the last couple of years. When I started getting interested in eXtreme Programming in 1998 it represented a step up from some of things I was already doing with software development teams. We were using techniques best classified as Rapid Application Development. First eXtreme Programming and then the Agile manifesto represented lightweight methods to get software shipped. Shipping software is a art ...

Monday, December 30, 2013. We all need to have conversations, every so often, that can make us feel uncomfortable. Yet without these conversations it is hard to maintain interactions with colleagues and business partners. Learning how to have these difficult conversations is a skill. A good friend, Lydia Kan, is leading a workshop in Brisbane, QLD in a couple of weeks to help you understand better how to approach these conversations. Find out more and sign up here.

Dr. Neil's Notes: Kinect for Windows expands its developer preview program
http://drneil.blogspot.com/2013/12/kinect-for-windows-expands-its.html
Friday, December 20, 2013. Kinect for Windows expands its developer preview program. The new Kinect for Windows 2 device that I received as part of the alpha kit last month is a big step forward form the previous Kinect for Windows device. The resolution is far better and the opportunity for multiple user applications seems to be better. My favourite feature is the possibly the lest expected, the fact that the device has a standard thread for mounting on a tripod. Kinect for Windows 2 device.
