TFS dog fooding and memory issue admissions
It's always good to see a company use their own product, and when it comes to TFS Microsoft has really excelled. Brian Harry details the current stats, including 300,000 work items across 148 million files. Especially impressive (to me) is how transparent the company is – they detail the memory management issues they are having due to the server cache of over 5 million files putting a...

Office 2007 SP1 coming soon
Looks like Microsoft is getting stuff out the door on time these days. The latest to be announced (well, rumoured) is Office 2007 SP1. The word on the street is that the SP1 will include a new feature to get rid of the ribbon interface (joke).

.Net roadmap
A nice summary from Scott Guthrie about where ASP.NET, Silverlight and IIS7 are heading. I'm continually stunned at how productive Scott's team are – they seem to be pumping out new (and useful) stuff all the time.
