    With Photos… Many Wrongs Can Make a Right using MSR GroupShot 

    I love my job!  One of the nicest part of it is… having accessing to a whole bunch of people smarter than me (I take comfort that I’m better looking).  During a visit to Redmond a few months back, Microsoft Research showed the attendees of our internal TechReady conference a project called “GroupShot”.  It allows you to take a bunch of not-so-good photos, pick out the best parts of each and make one good photo. 

    It comes in really handy when someone in the photo has their eyes closed or doing something annoying like bunny ears.  In this short little video, I show you a demo of how to take a bunch of “wrong” photos to assemble one “right”.  I also show you how to make funny composites and even how to make something disappear.

    You can download MSR’s GroupShot here and have a play:  http://research.microsoft.com/projects/GroupShot

    When taking group shots in the future… make sure to take multiple shots for use with GroupShot!

    Developer Support with Singapore’s Online Community 

     

    Understanding functional requirements is hard enough… getting support shouldn’t be. 

    You’ll be surprised how easy it is to find answers to your questions online.  I’ve been developing on the.NET since its earliest days and the majority of my learnings / problem resolutions have been through my online and community friends. 

    This short video shows you the tools I use to quickly find answers and code samples (search engines, managed newsgroups and MSDN Forums) plus details for a great user group in Singapore (SgDotNet) to find peers to connect with.
