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.

What happens when you take the most utilized business communication tool and team it up with Hotmail as the mail backend and sell that as a subscription? Outlook Live.
This is a pretty cool service! You can use Outlook and have all your mail, contacts, tasks, notes stored on Hotmail. Your data roams and you can access it anywhere. I've been using this for the past few months and love it. It makes Hotmail as my primary non work account really slick. Furtheremore, if you don't own a copy of Outlook 2003, it comes with the subscription.
