Sure, sure. MIX is mostly all about the great keynotes, sessions, networking and all the awesome content that is going to make your brain hurt in a good way, but that doesn’t mean you can’t go out for a good time while you’re in Sin City! On this, our last Countdown to MIX10 show, @anyware and @ritzy get advice from THE cocktail evangelist, Robert Hess, who tells us where to find a mean cocktail in Vegas. If we’re not at the conference, you might find us bellied up to a bar somewhere, and if you do, maybe your next round will be on us. See ya in Vegas!
This is our last show for MIX! Thanks all for your tremendous help!!!

Two other components of Origami Experience include Origami Now and Origami Central. Origami Now is kind of a gadget carousel that will let you create and rotate through tiles of things like weather, clocks, calendars, email, lists, pictures, notes or (pre-defined & out-of-date) RSS feeds. Origami Central includes a fat finger friendly media player, web browser, and customizable program launcher.
Keep in mind this is UMPC/Vista code. Mileage may vary, caveat emptor, etc. etc. But I’ve used it on the PDC laptop without a hitch.
Soon the language barrier will no longer be an issue. This piece of technology allows two users, speaking different languages, to communicate instantly. The speakers audio is turned into text, then that text is translated into another language and spoken aloud to the other party in the conversation. This could truly change the world.March is Women in Technology Month. We kick off the festivities on Channel 9 with a great conversation with an industry thought leader in interactive user experience design and architecture.
Meet Lili Cheng, general manager of Microsoft’s Future Social Experiences (FUSE) Labs, which focuses on software and services that are centered on social connectivity, real-time experiences, and rich media. Lili's a big fan of and active participant in social communication and the interactive design of social computing on the web.
Lili talks to @ritzy and @Carmine007 about her tenure at Microsoft which started in 1995. Lili is another shining example of a successful woman in technology, but more importantly her full time job consists of both pushing the envelope of social interaction and the inventing new experiences for social computing. Push on, Lili and team!

TechFest is the time of year when Microsoft Research gets to show off all of the interesting projects they’ve been working on- and Project Gustav is absolutely incredible. This painting application looks so real I literally had to touch the screen to make sure I wasn’t looking at an actual canvas. The tools are intuitive and the UI is natural and easy to use. Check out this hands-on demo and prepare yourself to be amazed.
In this third and last IdElement installment on the U-Prove CTP series, we once again feature Dr. Stefan Brands, who spends an hour describing the crypto behind U-Prove. Wrapping your head around all the mathematical details may require some effort, but if you are interested in this space it is totally worth it. By the end of the video, you will have a clear understanding of how U-Prove works and how it can truly reconcile security and privacy requirements.
In basic terms, minimal disclosure is a solution that discloses the least amount of identifying information while best limiting and constraining the use of identity-related information. In this episode of the IdElement, Dr. Stefan Brands, Principal Architect, shares the details of the highly anticipated U-Prove CTP, including availability of JAVA and C# toolkits and cryptographic specification. He also describes some edgy identity and security scenarios that the cryptographic protocols can enable with Windows CardSpace, Windows Identity Foundation, and Active Directory Federation Services.
In this second episode of the IdElement special on the U-Prove CTP, you get to know Christian Paquin and Greg Thompson, the team behind the U-Prove implementation since the Credentica times. Christian positions U-Prove in the context of the identity metasystem, and Greg goes into the details of the enhancements applied to CardSpace, Windows Identity Foundation, and ADFSv2 in order to integrate the U-Prove features. Tune in!
