What is your reason/motivation for blogging?

Today’s list of cool tools and weird things is brought to you by – well actually just me. But Kitty can hold her iPhone next to her Dell Laptop showing that she loves both PC and Apple. and yes pink is her favourite colour!

Lets start off with some Microsoft Technologies

Amit has written a good how to article explaining How to Insert Images in a Word Document without Embedding

john has written about his ongoing OneNote testing as part of the OneNote development team in at Microsoft. Interesting stuff. We love OneNote here – its our primary team communication tool (after Outlook) and we use Livemesh to synchronise our shared notebooks with our team spread around the world.

www.ferrari.com is written using Sharepoint Designer (now being offered for free) and is published with a Sharepoint Backend. Awesome! I like the 612 Scaglietti best.

Philip writes Exchange Integrated Outlook – Recovering Deleted Items. A good detailed how to.

Weird and wonderful

Cake Wrecks has some photos of awesome cake decorating – Stargate style!

That is I have been featured in a geek profile over at Grandy’s site called The Girly Anti-Geek. She wrote and asked me to complete a survey – now i know what our geek girl bloggers go though when we ask them! Its quite  nerve-wracking answering all these questions to be posted on someone else’s site.

Thanks Grandy!

We posted our article on Ada Lovelace day about Susan Bradley – also known as the SBS Diva.

This article is merely to point those interested readers to other similar articles.

The original blog post that started it all on the finding Ada website.

The mashup list of articles (which appears to have been spammed somewhat – though I assume that Suw Charman-Anderson will fix that shortly.

A Yahoo pipes Mashup using a world map to locate the source of the Ada Lovelace articles.

Some articles I noticed and read:

• Nick Hodge interviews Kate Carruthers
• Kate Carruthers writes her own Ada Lovelace article
• One of our geek girls, Catherine Eibner writes her Ada Lovelace 2009 article about another of our geek girls, Bronwen Zande
• Damana Madden writes about Suzi Edwards
• Jenine (the tech girls are chic author) writes her article
• Alison Young writes about several women
• Sleepy Dumpling’s article
