SoftwareLand. . . Is Moving
As some of you know I'm changing jobs inside Microsoft and this is the last Manic Minute to be produced in Silicon Valley. Starting tomorrow morning at 6am I hit the road and am driving from Silicon Valley to Seattle along Highway 101, the coast route.
I just got a new digital camera and am going to photo-blog it was well. If you want to come along head over to http://www.flickr.com/photos/softwarelandguy
No podcast of the day today. . . Gotta finish up my packing and d o laundry!
And that's you're Manic Minute for March 24th, 2005. . .
