March 30, 2009 by Victoria Yudin 4 Comments

There are many things I love about Office 2007. I think the ribbon is great and I cannot even remember how to work without it when I am on a computer with an older version of Office. But what I have always wondered is who decided that baby blue was the right choice for a default color scheme in […]

October 14, 2008 by Victoria Yudin 0 Comments

I just came across this very un-Microsoft looking Microsoft webiste for SQL Server.  There are a number of videos here geared towards different audiences.  I haven’t watched them all, but I did find Scott Konersmann’s video about upgrading to SQL 2008 very interesting.  And some of the For Fun videos are pretty funny – especially “It […]
