I’m not completely sold on how useful this will be. But I’m looking forward to the big boss getting hers so I can play with the Siri app. This looks pretty damn awesome. If it does a HAL voice, I may have to upgrade early 😉 Check out more information about Siri on Apple’s website.

We’ve recently been setting up vCloud 1.5 in the office and so far we like what we’ve been seeing. During the install, we did run into a bit of an issue when we set the API urls. On our first attempt we didn’t set them and had issues uploading media. You’d think that the two would be unrelated.

Today I had the chance to get back to some code for CreateFolder which creates a public folder within our Exchange 2007 environment support by Microsoft’s Hosted Messaging and Collaboration frame work.

Couldn’t come at a better time as we’re knee deep in vCloud at work and very excited to get our hands on the new bits coming out of VMware. Looking forward to a great conference and hopefully I’ll have some time to post some content of things we’re seeing. If not a blog post, definitely some tweets (@usrlocal for those that don’t follow me).
