His Story

It turns out that the second beta of Windows Live Writer is released, so this post is just to give it a try. Update: If you have installed Bad Behavior in your Wordpress site, you will probably see a 403 error when publishing in WLW. Make sure you turn it off.

Today is a sunny day and we’ve spent whole afternoon on the first morale event since I came to the team - Picture Hunting. People were divided into 7 groups and were give a specification of 50 items. Each group wants to take 50 pictures inside the campus according to the specs, within a fixed amount of time. I think my group has done a good job. We first brainstormed on the specs and marked each item with possible location. Then we planned our route just to make it less time consuming. We’ve searched the garage, the soccer field, the people’s offices, etc. and we ended up with a bunch of interesting pictures. It was really fun.

Look what I’ve got:

Tell me, what do you see in this picture?

No clue? Take a closer look.

These are plastic bags.

There are about 60,000 plastic bags in the first picture. That is the number of bags used in the US every five seconds. Each plastic bag takes up to 250 years to decompose. (credit: chrisjordan.com)

我可能是圈子里面仅有的一个在临近年中盛夏的时候晚上还开暖气盖双层被子的人吧。Redmond 这个地方住起来冬冷夏也冷，更加衬托了一人在家坐在电脑前一坐就是一天的气氛。温度奇怪，但窗外刺眼的碧绿还是提醒了我。转眼就到了五月，时间像扎了屁股的驴一样，一边嚎叫，一边飞快地奔跑。而我，就正坐在这头驴的背上。

貌似威猛，却一刻也不敢放手。

Hey, buddy! How’s going? Yeah, I’m good here. Are you coming to Seattle to visit me sometime? OK, It is too bad that you don’t have vacation any time soon. Alright, just in case you are wondering how does it look like in WA, here are some high definition photos taken by Microsoft Research. Check them out.

BTW, don’t forget to scroll your mouse wheel to zoom in for more detail. =)
