For those who are interested the XNA 3.0 CTP is available for download here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=DF4AF56A-58A7-474C-BFD0-7CF8ED3036A3&displaylang=en

XNA 3.0 now has support for the Zune .. which is unfortunately only available in the US at the moment, but on the other hand it has support for Visual Studio 2008 :) The Xbox 360 module isn't in the CTP, it will only be added in later with the final release.

The graphics on the Zune won't be anything spectacular .. but imagine the application possibilities .. using XNA to design vibrant interfaces!

CRM Windows Vista lookup gadget

I recently found this blog post: http://blogs.msdn.com/joris_kalz/pages/Vista-Microsoft-CRM-Search-Gadget.aspx, showing a lookup gadget for windows vista and it's just such a nifty and simple tool to build and implement.

I think this is great way to pull users into using tools like CRM and Sharepoint. Making the functionality of complicated systems so simple and incorporating the looks of vista .. just a great idea. And it's shouldn't stop just here, a lot of functionality can be built into these gadgets and utilizing enterprise search etc. would expand this little app just so much more!
