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.

First rule of Google AdSense. Don't talk about Google AdSense . Needless to say I am not pulling in $10,000 a month. If I were I'd probably quit my job and move . At first I was just happy if the program could pay my hosting fees. It pays a bit more than that . Good way to feed my gadget habit, as well as allow me to increase my yearly charitable contributions.
I'm finding the AdSense program to be really interesting. I actually find the results that they place on my blog to be very complimentary to my content. Contextual Advertising is cool.
