Quick Profile of an Interesting Person: Ed Bott
- by Scott Whigham on January 8, 2009 5:45 AMAs Windows 7's release date creeps closer and closer, I've begun seeing one man's name and articles in my RSS feeds - Ed Bott. If you're looking for someone interesting to follow in your RSS, check out the sort of posts he's been putting out recently:
- Five things Steve Ballmer won't tell you about Windows 7
- If you love Windows XP, you'll hate Windows 7
- Surprises in the Windows 7 license agreement
- Seven Questions Microsoft Won't Answer About Windows 7
- Originally published Oct 28, 2008. As of January 8, 2009, most of these have actually now been answered. Still - an interesting post at the time
- Six Vista annoyances fixed in Windows 7
- To be fair, these are extremely minor annoyances that were "fixed" but still interesting...
- A Deep Dive into Windows 7
- This isn't some forum-post-quality article that's full of screenshots
- With Vista SP2, Microsoft is Back on Track
- Another high quality article
What I like about Ed is that:
- He writes about interesting topics
- He writes thoroughly about those topics (he's likely to give you a legitimate 7 page article, for example)
- He pulls no punches ("Good lord, that was the worst CES keynote ever. I watched it over the Internet from a hotel room in Hawaii and finally gave up about two-thirds of the way through." posted January 7, 2009 - read it here)
Ed is also an author (see his books on amazon.com here)
So check him out.
Protip: don't use Internet Explorer to view the ZDNet.com website - it's just so full of annoying ads that it's un-viewable IMO. What I would suggest is to use Firefox coupled with the AdBlock add-on (available for free here). Then, after viewing a page or two, you can right click and block the more offensive/annoying advertiser's images.

Very interesting way to market on facebook. I also found a way to automate several very powerful methods of getting users. You can capture ID by groups or pages or wall posts with this program. Then once you have them you can do a friend request to your logon or sudo profile. This by passes the captcha codes too. There is also a cool chat program that you can setup scripts and keyword to work with. This program, when I use it I can see a spike in my site traffic. It is sweet...
Good read! You need to get some social bookmarking buttons on your posts so that we can share stuff like this with the click of a button.
Occupations and company distinctly architectural plan on comprising fresh products from papers, magazine publishing companies, TV networks and Hollywood movie studio apartments as the iPad rolls out. But there wasn’t much talk about any of those media productions during the launch upshot.
Some time before, I really needed to buy a good house for my business but I didn't earn enough money and could not purchase something. Thank goodness my father adviced to try to take the loan from creditors. So, I acted so and used to be satisfied with my sba loan.
Hahaha! I love this profile! :-)

The iPad is a nice device with a touch screen. Nobody offer this by netbooks or notebooks. I think this will come in the future and so the iPad is the only product that you can use to work with a touch screen.
Shoe lifts sometimes known as heel lifts. Shoe lifts originated from "elevator shoes". The first manufacturers of elevator shoes found it very hard to produce as complete a range of styles as those available in contemperary shoes. Customers asked for something less obtrusive like an insert to put in normal footwear to make them look taller.

In fact, some of the Swiss luxury watch, in appearance and identity numbers are there, and done a lot of anti-counterfeiting
measures,. For example, Rolex has 5 numbers, they are: (1) case models, (2) Watch production sequence number
movement and on the number, (4) the movement and on the production sequence number, (5) the band number. In addition to the
band number in the band discount out surface, the rest are hidden, not to remove the watch strap or open the rear door in order to
see it.
If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.
Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.
I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
thank you for your share

I just sent this post to a bunch of my friends as I agree with most of what you’re saying here and the way you’ve presented it is awesome.
Which golf clubs will be the best for beginner ?
Fergie Women's Isatope Magenta/Plum - Fergie is best known for being apart of the band The Black Eyed Peas. From her success as a singer Fergie has created her own brand of womens shoes and sandals. Here is one of Fergies sandals, a beautiful and chic sandal with a decorative fabric ruffle embellishment on the T-strap. Great for adding extra dazzle and flair to any outfit.
Kenneth Cole Reaction "Glam Session" - These women's beaded sandals are also equipped with a bit of an earthy appearance and have a few different looks and colors. They are appropriately named as they do have quite a "glam" look about them and are one of the loveliest flat thong styles around.

Great post, thanks. Like your blog design too.
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.
