Watching Windows Weekly this week I think the most confusing thing about “Xbox Live TV” seems to be that people don’t know what it is called. Microsoft don’t mention a single name for this new service in their press release but I don’t think there should be confusion about that, I think actually that these [...]

That’s right, today (27/09/2011) is the day that the proverbial mango shaped eagle has landed! It’s been 11 months in the making and boy does it taste good.

I have thought about this idea for the last few days and I have just seen a post on WMPU in which Brandon Watson has indicated there is more to come in Mango that has encouraged me to write this post. I have more coverage about Mango with my thoughts on it and in pictures. [...]

Last night I posted many of the photos I took from the Windows Phone VIP event in London where Microsoft announced and showed off the many new features. Today I thought I would share with you my initial impressions of what I saw of Mango and the things that really interest me. Groups The idea [...]
