Me: I live in Silicon Valley with my wife, child and cat. I have worked at Microsoft since I graduated from College, both in the Macintosh Business Unit on products such as Outlook Express, Entourage, IE, and Virtual PC and in Windows Live on Hotmail, Calendar and People. I am currently a Principal Lead Program Manager on the Windows Live Social Networking team. I basically manage a team of Program Managers responsible for delivering features to support our web and client applications. I've been blogging since 2001 and like to play around with .NET in my spare time working on projects such as dasBlog (the blog that powers this site) and Send to SmugMug (an application for uploading photos to SmugMug). I blog about a number of technology and productivity related topics.

Latley, I've been using Excel a LOT. Right now it powers (along with the people of course) the development process we are using in Hotmail (Modified Scrum). There are features in Excel that I didn't even know about till I started looking at the template that we have here (created by the Engineering Excellence Group). One thing I always strugle with is how to create a Pivot Table. I usually curse at my machine, and go find some one else in my hallway that knows how to create a Pivot Table with the information I want.
Ask no more. O'Reilly has a how to for Pivot Tables. Rock on.
I think I might have to purchase Excel: The Missing Manual.
