Na een korte pauze ben ik weer gestart met het bloggen op de website van De Zaak. Dit keer aandacht voor de mogelijke verbeterpunten van zakelijk email bij met name de klein zakelijk ondernemer :
En voor het geval u uw bakkerij een nieuwe naam wilt geven, vandaag (21 september 2010) was de URL bakkerijhetbroodje.nl nog vrij
Vanaf vandaag ben ik een van de bloggers op de website van ‘De Zaak’. Ik doe hier mijn uiterste best om onderwerpen rond het thema ICT en Online diensten zo goed en hopelijk ook zo leuk mogelijk neer te zetten.
Heb je feedback, suggesties of vragen laat het me aub weten.
For the second consequtive day a spammer has posted up to 30 comments promoting shoes of a certain brand ... Don't you just hate that ?
So for now I have turned the review feature for comments on .. ofcourse all normal comments will be published asap; unless you're selling shoes ...
I almost tweeted .. NOT :-). Must be Slideshare’s April Foolsday joke … Lot’s of people tweeted though check them out at #bestofslideshare.
Good way to use Twitter by the way
Someone replies to one of your tweets and you don’t have a clue which one ? Been there ? Me too. Today I discovered a cool feature in TweetDeck (which ofcourse is in there but I never noticed it : in reply to ..
If someone replied to one of your tweets, the info underneeth the tweet shows an in reply to link. Click it and you see the original tweet.
By the way this is the first time I beat Henk Jan van der Klis to a feature :-)
One of the things that motivate me in blogging in traffic, bith the number of hits on the site as well as people ‘consuming’ the RSS feed. I celebrate each milestone and today I almost celebrate a readership of 500 on my RSS feed :

John DeVaan and Steven Sinofsky have started a new blog dedicated to the engineering of Microsoft Windows 7 :
… Welcome to our first post on a new blog from Microsoft—the Engineering Windows 7 blog, or E7 for short. E7 is hosted by the two senior engineering managers for the Windows 7 product, Jon DeVaan and Steven Sinofsky. Jon and Steven, along with members of the engineering team will post, comment, and participate in this blog.
Beginning with this post together we are going to start looking forward towards the “Windows 7” project. We know there are tons of questions about the specifics of the project and strong desire to know what’s in store for the next major release of Windows. Believe us, we are just as excited to start talking about the release. Over the past 18 months since Windows Vista’s broad availability, the team has been hard at work creating the next Windows product. …

I’m back on August 11 …
Theo blogt te weinig, maar gelukkig weet ie dat van zichzelf ;-).
Zijn meest recent post gaat over Microsoft Nederland als werkgever en het de onderzoeksresultaten liegen er niet om …
Wat ik wle interessant vond in Theo’s post was een compilatie met foto’s van ons nieuwe pand die een uitstekende impressie geven van de sfeer :
… Maar wat voor mij persoonlijk toch wel het moment was – het verhuizen naar ons nieuwe pand. Wat een cadeautje. Een project van de afgelopen 2,5 jaar, als onderdeel van een groter veranderingsproces om het nieuwe werken te adopteren. Met als doelen het verder verhogen van de vitaliteit, de productiviteit en de groei: groei van resultaten door persoonlijke groei, groei van ons samenwerkend vermogen en groei van kennisdeling.
Het nieuwe pand is meer een ontmoetingsplek dan een werkplek. Want werken kun je overal. In het totale veranderingsproces zien we The Outlook (zo heet ons nieuwe pand namelijk) als een katalysator, een versneller. En dat klopt heel erg. We zitten er nu een klein maandje in en al vanaf de eerste dag viel The Outlook op haar plek. Niet zozeer doordat alles werkte….maar echt op z’n plek. Mensen die trots rondlopen, op verkenning en al heel snel zag je de ontmoeting en de samenwerking. Heel mooi! ….

Eerder dit jaar is Steven Kop van Logica een nieuwe weblog begonnen: Het Nieuwe Werken.
In de weblog staat zoals de titel al zegt 'het nieuwe werken' centraal :
Zeer de moeite waard dus voor iedereen die geintereseerd is in al die aspecten die ons werk nu en in de toekomst beinvloeden en veranderen ..
Welkom in de blogosphere Steven :-)
I haven't read anything about this yet. While checking my feeds I saw Steve's post on this.
A whole day without a PC ... it's a saterday, so that should help ... I do wonder how many people can/do/will ... I'm in ...
The clock is ticking towards Shutdown Day and if I can turn off my computer for a day I’m sure you can :)
Shutdown Day is a Global Internet Experiment whose purpose is to get people to think about how their lives have changed with the increasing use of the home computer, and whether or not any good things are being lost because of this.
The idea of Shutdown Day project is simple - just shutdown your computer for one whole day of the year and involve yourself in some other activities: outdoors, nature, sports, fun stuff with friends and family - whatever, just to remind yourself that there still exists a world outside your monitor screen.

Willem vroeg me via een comment op mijn RSS Feed 'Mijlpaal' post naar de onderverdeling per RSS reader :
Zoals je ziet is mijn 'Microsoft aanhang' vrij groot; veel gebruikers maken gebruik van de RSS lezer in Outlook 2007 en/of IE 7 ...
Vandaag is het aantal abonnees op mijn RSS feed voor het eerst door de 400 grens gegaan.
Nog niet zo lang geleden, Op 11 oktober 2007 bereikte ik de 300 grens.
Elke mijlpaal moet je vieren, toch ? :-)
Ik checkte de Microsoft NL blogs vanavond en ja hoor, een "nieuweling". Welkom Matthijs ..
... Hallo, mijn naam is Matthijs Hoekstra. Ik werk nu zo’n 6 jaar als consultant bij Microsoft Services. Microsoft Services is in Nederland ongeveer 120 man/vrouw groot.
Ikzelf zit in de IW Groep. We houden ons bezig met zaken als SharePoint, Office, OCS etc. Dat varieert van grote SharePoint infrastructuur- en development projecten tot het geven van training op al deze onderwerpen, klanten helpen bij de uitrol van Office etc. Naast technische projecten zijn we ook steeds drukker klanten te helpen bij het doorvoeren van onze New World of Work visie. Ons team is nu 13 personen. 9 mannen en 4 vrouwen.
Naast de consultants in het IW team hebben we ook consultants op andere gebieden zoals: Infrastructuur, development, operations, strategy en project- en programma managers.
Op dit blog zal ik proberen wat informatie over ons werk als consultant te posten en mocht ik interessante dingen tegen komen tijdens mijn werk zal ik dat ook proberen te vermelden. Ik heb gemerkt in gesprekken die ik bij mijn klanten heb gehad dat men het vaak leuk vind om te horen hoe dingen bij Microsoft werken en intern gebeuren. Ik zal proberen een beetje inzicht te geven in 'ons' wereldje. ...
Laura is mijn dochter van 15, die helemaal gek is van koken.
Ik heb haar een beetje kunnen 'beïnvloeden" dat een blog wel een hele handige manier is om haar recepten op te slaan, te voorzien van foto's (die ze toch altijd al maakt) en ook gelijk te delen met anderen (als je deelt heb je meer :-) )
Dus ... zoek je een leuk recept check haar blog : Laura's Keuken
O ja, en laat even een comment achter als je wilt, dat stimuleert :-)
This is why :
While browsing the NewsGator site on FeedDemon I noticed that the new 2.6 version is released. It includes a number of improvements over my current version :
Reading Feeds
Newspaper Format: When you select a channel, FeedDemon's tabbed browser displays the channel's news items in a newspaper for easy reading. You can display a newspaper of news items for an entire folder or view one feed at a time.
News Bins: Store news items in a central location and provide a handy way to collect items from different channels. If you find an interesting item that you might want to read again, just store it in a news bin for future reference. News Bins are synchronized through the NewsGator Online platform, so you can read these items from FeedDemon on other computers as well as other NewsGator readers.
Synchronization: Read a post in FeedDemon and it is marked as read in other NewsGator readers.
Shared Experience: See what news is popular with other NewsGator users and find out who is linking to the news you’re reading.
Video: Watch embedded video right within the newspaper view.
Panic Button: Ever gone on vacation and gotten a little behind on your reading? The Panic Button solves this and many other problems by quickly marking all older items read.
Finding Feeds
Watches: Look for keywords in news items as they're downloaded. After you create a watch, it examines every incoming news item whenever any channel is updated.
News Comes To You: Subscribe to feeds from all over the web or choose some of the dozens of default feeds.
Search: Search outside of FeedDemon's subscriptions by selecting a feed search engine, then enter your keyword, and FeedDemon will subscribe to a dynamic channel containing the search results for that keyword.
Other
Podcasts: Powerful podcasting tools enable you to download audio files and automatically copy them to your iPod or other media player. The bundled FeedStation utility enables you to schedule your downloads so they happen overnight while you're asleep. When you wake up, you'll find new audio waiting on your media player of choice.
Peter O'Kelly posted something interesting about Newsgators client products :
FeedDemon is, imho, the leading XML syndication client; now it's also free
As part of an effort to help bolster its enterprise business and provide more relevant content to users, NewsGator Technologies Inc. today announced that all of its consumer RSS (Real Simple Syndication) client applications are now available without charge.
The list of free applications includes NewsGator Inbox, FeedDemon, NetNewsWire and NewsGator Go for Windows Mobile, Blackberry/Java, iPhone and HTML mobile applications, as well as NewsGator Online, the company said. All include free synchronization across the Web, desktop and mobile devices, NewsGator said.
NewsGator stops charging for consumer RSS client apps

I am a feedDemon user for almost 6 months and I agree with Peter that this is the best RSS client app out there.
The integration between FeedDemon and NewsGator Online is fantastic and the fact that you can work with Newsbins which can be shared through an RSS feed is great. The Comments Elsewhere on my site is basicly a newsbin RSS feed I share on my blog.
FeedDemon is great : Go and get it ...
I wonder if NewsGator gives me a refund, I am afteralll Dutch :-)
Cool website : the wayback machine shows you what a site looked like ... way back ...
Typepad now has an option to publish certain posts to FaceBook :
I thought I give it a try, but it only seems to work when you publish from within the online TypePad editor. As I am a fanatic Windows Live Writer user this is a no go. I need to dig a little deeper to resolve this I guess ...

Willem Karssenberg gaf verleden week op zijn blog een korte review van Windows Live Workspace.
... "Je mag zeker over Office Live Workspaces praten :)"
staat in de reacties op mijn bericht van gisteren, waarin ik zei dat ik uitdrukkelijk gewezen was op de disclaimer. Nou, in dat geval plaats ik ook maar een screenshot dacht ik, zodat ook mijn bezoekers een beeld kunnen krijgen van hoe deze omgeving eruit kan gaan zien ...
Het is nog geen volledig publieke beta, dat komt binnenkort. Eerder vandaag heb ik al een blogje gepost met de nieuwe add-in voor Office; dit geeft je dus een naadloze integratie tussen de offline en de online wereld, wat wil je nog meer.
... Overigens lijken de mensen bij Microsoft zich te ontpoppen als echte webloggers! Niet alleen Remco Ploeg heeft een weblog, waar hij gelijk gisterenavond al de presentatie had staan (in 2 varianten). Ook Peter de Haas die gisteren een onderdeel verzorgde houdt meerdere weblogs bij waarin hij over z'n werk en interesses blogt, en met een keurige disclaimer (moet ik ook nog eens doen)!
Ik weet niet of Microsoft dit actief promoot, maar het geeft zo'n bedrijf wel een gezicht. Van de mensen van Google die er gisteren waren is veel moeilijker wat te vinden...
Leuk trouwens dat Willem onze blogging effort erkend :-). Ja Willem Microsoft promoot dit actief. Wat op zich een goede resource is als je op de hoogte wilt blijven van Microsoft gerelateerde ontwikkelingen (naast het blog van Remco en mijn blog ;-) zijn :

As I regularly post Dutch blogposts as well I thought I'd implement the new Windows Live Translator on my blog. You can find it at the bottom of the Information Links section.

I have decided to remove Snapshots from my blogs because they are turning from a free, very cool feature to a very cool feature with an advertising model. I completely understand Snapshots motivations and drive to earn some cash, but I don't want to be a part of this money making game ..
... Today at ad:tech and Thursday at BlogWorld, Snap Shots is making two big announcements:
- We're adding advertising to Snap Shots.
- We're sharing with the sites that make Snap Shots possible.
For the last year, we've been giving it away.
Starting today, it's time to share.We launched Snap Shots a year ago on November 14, 2006, and have been giving your website users better web experiences by the billion. And millions of sites around the world agree--a better user experience made them better websites.
As it turns out, a better user experience also makes for a better advertising experience. Which makes sites like yours, with Snap Shots on them, very attractive to advertisers, particularly when you're part of the new Snap Shots Advertising Network. ...
... With Snap Shares, we share a portion of the advertising inventory within the Snap Shots with you so that you can:
- Have Google serve ads via your Adsense account
- Display your own ads
- Give to a non-profit
We've decided to partner with Google (and soon others) to handle your share for a very simple reason: we don't have the resources to properly administer this type of program and they do. It also means that you won't have to deal with a new team and a new set of rules and regulations regarding your advertising payments. ...
Michael is sharing his "Thought Of The Week" more broadly ... I like it already :-)
At Microsoft Belux I send a Thought Of The Week to all staff members every week. Could be anything worthwhile reading and is meant to drive a moment of thoughts. I might as well share them on my blog as of now.

eWebscapes has designed my new blog, and a very superb job they did ...
Their website now features my blog.
I can most certainly recommend them not only for the final design, but also for the whole process in creating it. Very professional.
I have been having discussions with a number of colleagues over the last few weeks about blogging. A lot of my colleagues would like to start a blog, but they don't know if this is their "thing" and whether or not they can continue to be motivated to blog. Ofcourse they can just start a blog and see what happens.
While brainstorming on the options I thought of asking a few of them to become a guest blogger on my blog. Everyone of them is an expert in their field and know more about certain topics than I do (and that's not hard I hear you say ;-) ).
I am still not 100% sure if and how it will work, but on the other hand why not give it a try ... start small with 1 or 2 guest bloggers and see what happens.
I hope to introduce them to you soon ...
There, it's finished. The new design of my blog.
I hope you like it, I sure do !
Tell me what you think ...
Great great thank you goes out to Dino, the designer of eWebscapes who has created the design ...
I am not a heavy SlideShare user (yet), but I like the service very much.
One reason is that you can easily share your presentation (even with PPT download) with a large audience and also publish it in your blog.
Also you can browse other presentations on all sort of topics through categories or search and that way you can often find what you need.
When going through the service today I found that they also provide something that was new to me : slidecasting. A combination of your uploaded presentation and a podcast, how cool is that ...
So on my todo list for the coming weeks is to mess around with this service and create a slidecast :-)
Because I did not, I missed out on having more and better site stats. The current limit (as I am a freebie user) for StatCounter is 100 pageloads; per May of this year it was increased to 500 pageloads.
I finally made the change this morning (and I subscribed to the blogs feed :-) ), better late than never ...
StatCounter - Now 5 Times Better - FREE!
... Hi folks,
We’ve been busy in the background optimising our systems to allow us to bring you even more for FREE.
We’re very pleased to let you know today that every StatCounter project now comes with a log size of 500 - you guessed it - FREE!
This means that you can now drill down into the detail of the last 500 pageloads on your site. And, of course, you still have LIFETIME summary stats on ALL your visitors. ...
... Here’s what you have to do now:
Free Members:
To increase your log size, log into StatCounter and click the wrench icon beside your project. Click ‘Adjust Log Size’, and enter 500 in the box. Click ‘Adjust Project Log’ and you’re done! ...

Lots of changes with regards to my blogging setup. As I "announced" earlier this week, there will be a new design for my blog.
Next to that I have switched RSS readers. I now use FeedDemon of NewsGator,( I will explain the how and why later this week).
What FeedDemon / NewsGator also provides is an easy way to publish my blogroll and so I did, along with the setup of a few new pages. As of today, my blogroll can be found at: http://www.peterdehaas.net/blogs-i-read.html.
For one its a good way of returning the favour to many readers who have kindly listed me in theirs. For those who have not (yet) hope you will do so ;-) ...
If all goes according to plan, I will be revealing my new weblog design by the end of this week.
After years of working with a standard Typepad design I decided to give my blog a bit of a personal touch. I hope you all like it.
Please check back later this week. Also by that time I will start blogging again to be fully up to speed after a 3 week holiday.
Hi, I am signing off now for the summer holiday.
I will (try to) not blog for 3 weeks ...

Gisteren had ik de mogelijkheid om een presentatie te geven over mijn ervaringen als blogger bij een van onze partners. Een uur lang praten over iets dat je heel leuk vind is ... heel leuk :-). Er is uiteraard altijd veel meer te vertellen dan je in een uurtje kwijt kunt. De focus was hier drijfveren, motivatie; kortom hoe hou je het vol.
Voor mij was die vraag niet zo moeilijk; het is een hobby (net zoals mijn werk trouwens). Het was een leuke interactieve sessie en ik hoop dat ik wat van mijn passie heb kunnen overbrengen.
Mocht je geinteresseerd zijn in mijn ervaringen; hier is de presentatie :
(Sommige slides zijn onleesbaar helaas via de viewer. Via Slideshare kun je de ppt ook downloaden).
Mail me maar als je vragen of opmerkingen hebt ...
That's the result of a week not blogging. I have been on holiday this week and also took a week off from blogging.
Plenty of ideas though, so I hope to be up to speed as of Monday again ...
Compete Blog features a nice post comparing Technorti vs Google Blog Search ... Defenitly a field in which Google is not the searchleader .. by far ...
Yes, Technorati is still very much the most visited blog search engine.
Earlier this week Technorati self reported Q1 numbers – they grew page views by 150% and unique visitors 141%. The bigger question however — how does this growth compare to the #2 player in this space - Google Blog Search?
