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.

This is really sad. I’ve spent a lot of time over the years in Sharm el-Sheik, including a good part of my wedding trip to Egypt with a bunch of my friends. It’s one of the world’s best kept secrets, has wonderful sea life, and is home to St Catherine's Monastery, the oldest functioning Christian Monestary.
I’m actually going to Sharm in October with Lora, my sister and her boyfriend.
What a tragic mess. My heart goes out to the victims and in fact all the people there.
