Things are changing

By tyson.kopczynski on Mon, 08/25/08 - 2:04am.

In case you have noticed, I haven't been blogging that much lately.  No, I'm dropping off... instead there is a really good reason.  Changes are in the works, and I've been a bit busy putting those changes into place...

As of September 8th, I'll be moving to the land of the rising sun (Tokyo - Japan).  That being said, I have been taking care of a number of personal items over the past few weeks, hence the low number of postings on my blog.  Anyhow, after completing the move, I've decided to change the format of blog around to spice things up.  The following is a summary of these changes:

  • Once a week, or as often as I can get to Akihabara I will be blogging about interesting technical gadgets that I find.
  • I also plan on blogging about my experiences living and working in Japan.
  • Lastly, I will also be chronicling my attempt to complete the first stage on Sasuke. For those not familiar with Sasuke, it's a very hard obstacle course that is also a Japanese television show (fun stuff).

However, these changes by no means will reduce the technical nature of my blog.  My focus will still continue to be Microsoft technologies and other items that peak my interest.  If anything, thanks to these changes, my blog should be a little more interesting to read because I will not be blabbing about technology all the time.  :>)

Actually, come to think about it.  While I'm in Japan, if there is something anyone wants me to talk about (both technology or on Japanese culture).  Let me know.

This comment is to Tyson - your investigation solved a problem that NO ONE in my company had even an inkling of what to do. So question - where in the world did you find UseLegacyFB Dword information? Is there a list of all Outlook 2007 registry configuration Dwords and values? Thanks x100 for your posting. Best regards, Clifford

Anytime...

Don't remember exactly how I figured out that reg key.  But, most likely it was a bit of troubleshooting, google, and working with people that write the books on this stuff.  :>)

Anyhow... glad to help, I always try to make it point to share strange stuff.
