First Look at Arc Touch Mouse
I stopped by the hardware team to take a first look at the new Arc Touch Mouse, and shot this short video. The Touch folds flat, to about the same size as an HTC Touch phone. Where the old Arc Mouse fit well in a front pocket, the Arc Touch will do well in a back pocket. The folding portion of the mouse has 90 articulated pieces and snaps to a very solid feeling and natural arc. …[more ]

Accelerometer Helper for Windows Phone 7
In this deep dive, Sean McKenna from Windows Phone and Greg Hodgal discuss how to program for Windows Phone 7 using the accelerometer.
An accelerometer is a sensor that measures acceleration forces such as gravity or the forces caused by moving the sensor.

Countdown to PDC10: A Tour of Building 33

First, congratulations to Jarem Archer for winning the free pass to PDC!  We loved the inventiveness and creativity of his SketchFlow comic listing the 7 reasons why he should attend PDC10.  Well done, @unt1tled!  Then we’re off and running on a very quick excursion through the Microsoft Conference Center where PDC will be held this year.  Sometimes it’s dark, sometimes the audio isn’t that great, sometimes it’s a little jiggly, but hopefully this jaunt through the facility gives you a good idea of the space and venue that will be our home this year.  http://www.microsoftpdc.com/
