Ok, so it's been awhile since my last post - about 3 months. Lots of things have happened in the interim, and I've decided to reboot the site.

So what's new?

On the professional front, I made an internal move from being a PM to an Architect Evangelist for the Longhorn Server Evangelism team. I focus primarily on Windows Communication Foundation, Workflow Foundation, and the Identity and Access Management technologies and how they're used in the Enterprise space.

I've also co-authored an upcoming book on Windows Communciation Foundation (WCF) with team mate Craig McMurtry (details to come), and have some cool demos/code I've put together that you'll see posted as the weeks, months go on. I also had the opportunity to participate in Microsoft's Professional Developers Conference, as a co-owner of the Ask the Experts session, writing some labs, and participating in one of the sessions.

On the personal front, I've dropped about 59 pounds with a little help from my friends at the 20/20 program over at ProSportsClub, and am targeting another 50 by next March.

For those rare few of you who subscribed to the blog before, you may have noticed that I've dropped the name 'whyanotherblog' and gone with the 'Living in a World of Connected Systems'. The original name seemed novel whatever late night I bought the url from GoDaddy.com, but in hindsight, was kind of lame  

In the days/weeks/months to come, expect to find code, discussion, links, and screencasts on the latest and greatest stuff coming down the line.
