Mobility Road Show on Thursday Evening

It seems many people are unaware that Microsoft is hosting a free Mobility workshop this week. Details are here:

Blogs from other cities that just had the roadshow are positive. This should be great
event.

Deja-vu?

Thursday, November 04, 2004
Marriott Atlanta Midtown
35 14th St NE
Atlanta, GA 30309

This is the same day as the Mobility Road Show + and is roughly the same part of town.
After the last
ISV Community Day event
it is pretty likely I won’t be attending. It does look
vaguely interesting though, it would be useful to learn what is new in 2003 Server.

Looking for Podcasts?

On this week’s Gillmor Gang, Adam Curry mentioned this link:

IT Conversations had a good interview with Adam last week. For those that grew up
in a cave (or Europe like me) and don’t know who Adam Curry is – he was the VJ on
MTV in the 80’s with big hair. Apparently he is quite the budding Steve Wozniak type.

First weekend after the mobility group kick-off meeting I intend to get an iPod wired
into up to my car’s audio bus. For anyone else with a post 2001 3 series this is how
to do it:

Probably I’ll hook into the bus via the trunk (where the CD changer would go) to save
ripping the dash apart

Post 2001 cars can also do BlueTooth:
