Mac Os X Steps Ahead of Windows, written by MATTHEW FORDAHL, begins with:
Tired of waiting while your PC slowly scours its hard drive for a document you stashed somewhere six months ago? Sick of having to change how you work to conform with the computer's rigid way of organizing files? Bored with the flat look of the desktop's graphics?
Brandon Paddock is a geek in the best sense of the term. He likes to experiment with new technology and figure out what makes it tick. Brandon is willing to put up with a few shortcomings on the bleeding edge but seems to view advancements with the critical eye necessary to thrive in a world where everything is constantly changing. At the recent Search Champs event, Brandon brought his critical eye to MSN Search finding things they do both right and wrong. You can read Brandon’s take on technology at GeeksWithBlogs.net and meet him virtually through the recent conversation he had with Chris while they were traveling to MSN Search Champs via shuttle.
By day, Marc Orchant is the Storyteller for Van Dyke Software, which is a creative way of saying he knows more about marketing secure shell products than virtually anyone else in the computer software biz. In his spare time, Marc blogs prolifically on topics like Microsoft Office, Microsoft Office and Tablet PC. When he’s not blogging, chances are Marc will make a good case for why a Tablet PC might just change your life; that is unless you are Chris Pirillo. Marc has given up trying to convince Chris that Tablet computing offers fundamental advantages over traditional keyboard and mouse interfacing. Chris talked to Marc at a mall food court in Bellevue, following the recent Search Champs, where they discussed Tablet PC, secure shell applications and Microsoft Office.
You can’t meet Buzz Bruggeman and not learn about ActiveWords. Buzz is perfect product evangelist, mixing a healthy dose of enthusiasm for the product with an ability to identify specific features helpful to whatever your computing experience may be. Buzz blogs regularly in a variety of places, including Buzznovation and Buzzmodo. During the recent Search Champs gather, Chris caught up with Buzz to talk about search innovations.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough when I told you I wanted to beta test the new version, as I have for every incremental build in the past.
I stand by my opinion that NewsGator is acting irresponsible. Instead of your desktop clients hitting a single NewsGator server for feed updates, each client hits each feed during each update. That's a colossal waste of bandwidth! Not only do you have to fix outstanding bugs that haven't been addressed for well over a YEAR, you have to play catch up with the rest of the aggregator world…
Okay, I've got an entire (almost new) Nikon Coolpix 8800 package to sell – complete with official carrying case, portable lens cleaner, extra battery, etc. Seems I could sell everything Nikon'ish for ~$700, so… before I go that route, I thought I'd pitch it to my readers here (and on Lockergnome). Nothing wrong with the camera at all, but I think I'm ready to go back to the Canon Family. Per a recent press release for the Canon PowerShot S2 IS:
