Quite a bit has changed in the 10 months since I’ve updated my blog. I thought I’d update it with the latest and greatest happenings.
Windows Live Wave 4
Windows Live Wave 4 has been a major release with a lot of effort put in from a lot of teams. My main feature has been working on the “Startup Experience” (SE). The SE onboards new and existing users to some of the new features of Wave 4. Two of the main scenarios are the ability to take a photo, and add a service.
Take a photo
You can take a photo and update your profile.
Add a service
Add MySpace to your profile.
Promotion
During this review period, I was also given a promotion, and a new title – “Software Development Engineer II”. All of the hard work and dedication over the past year has paid off. Along with the promotion, it means that bigger and better opportunities are available. I’m excited for many of the ideas for Wave 5 and look forward to what comes next!
Moving
Recently I moved out of Belltown to Wallingford. The old apartment was a 2BR, 1BA while the new apartment is 4BR, 3BA (moved in with two others). So far the new house is very spacious, clean, and our neighbors are fantastic!
Knee Injury
I injured my knee playing dodgeball around May, and just recently found out that I tore my meniscus. Because of this tear, my doctor recommended I get surgery, which is scheduled for 9/7/10. I’ll keep the blog updated in how that goes.
