Office Professional Plus 2010 Key Is Yahoo causing

It;s been a long short week right here in snowy Ny. Here are several additional Microsoft news bits about which I didn;t have a likelihood to weblog earlier this week.Microsoft acknowledges third-party causing data-uploading challenges on Windows Telephone seven devices: Microsoft officials mentioned this week the excessive data uploading skilled by some WP7 consumers is because of a third-party application. Microsoft declined to identify the company or application, but did say business officials were operating together with the corporation in question to fix the application. Microsoft might probably give a workaround, officials mentioned. I;ve seen two credible reports that are pointing fingers at Yahoo Mail because the possible culprit. I didn;t receive a response from Yahoo when I asked, and Microsoft execs also declined to comment particularly on Yahoo Mail becoming probably at fault.Speaking of Windows Telephone seven, MobileTechWorld.com posted this week its quite in-depth WP7 evaluation — complete with a section on missing features and updates — that;s worth checking out.The Microsoft brain-drain train chugs along: At the risk of turning my “All About Microsoft” blog into a “No longer at Microsoft” one, I;m continuing to post knowledge about some of the more public folks leaving the organization. In addition to posts I did this week on Microsoft;s head of consumer marketing for Windows and one of its Kinect contributors and researchers leaving the company, there are others who made headlines this week. Julien Codorniou, who managed the Microsoft BizSpark program for startups, is going to Facebook. (Thanks to @pradeepviswav for the heads up on that one.) And Emilio Umeoka, the Microsoft president of Asia Pacific, is going to Juniper Networks to run the firm;s worldwide channel program. Hmm. Maybe it;s time for Microsoft to start touting publicly its new hires via some tweets and Facebook updates…..Can you have HTML compliance without agreement on what “HTML” is? A day after the W3C (and Microsoft) put their muscle behind a new HTML5 marketing campaign and logo, the editor of the Hypertext Markup Language standard (among others) mentioned the W3C;s definition of HTML5 is basically meaningless. (The HTML editor is Google employee Ian Hickson.) The Web Hypertext Applications Technology Functioning Group (WHATWG) is advocating that HTML with no version amount — and no related technologies, such as CSS or font formats — be considered the “real” HTML standard. (WHATWG members include Apple, Mozilla and Opera.) In any case, Microsoft is firmly in the W3C/HTML5 camp with IE 9.Update (January 24): The W3C has pared back the list of technologies covered by the HTML5 logo to just HTML5 (not HTML5 plus SVG, plus CSS, plus Web Sockets, etc.).Former Softies get SaaSy:A bunch of former Microsoft execs have launched a Seattle-based startup called buuteeq. The new venture is offering independent hotels a software-as-a-service (SaaS) digital-marketing system to create web sites, mobile phone content, a Facebook presence and direct-to-hotel online reservations. Among buuteeq;s management are CEO Adam Brownstein, former Director of Business Development in the Microsoft Entertainment and Devices Division; Chief Marketing Officer Forest Key,Office Professional Plus 2010 Key, former Senior Director in the Microsoft Server & Tools Division; Brian Saab, fomer head of the worldwide marketing team for the Microsoft Expression tools; and board member Charles Fitzgerald, who was formerly General Manager of Platform Strategy at Microsoft.
