I installed the new XBox experience (NXE) last night, and on first boot the software asks you to create an avatar; which was fun. Here is me on the Xbox:

If you want to create an avatar of yourself, you can now use NXE, then get the image (PNG) via a web browser. Type: http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/GAMERTAG/avatar-body.png, where you replace GAMERTAG with your own tag. Mine, for example, is gost78.

I post fairly often on the core Windows networking blog, but often want to share other topics both professionally and personally. I’ll use this blog as my primary means to not only talk about the things I do in my life, but also to professionally answer all the questions I hear from customers and partners I interact with. I will also frequently comment on other online writings which I feel need clarification, or I agree/disagree with. I’ll share my thoughts on products, strategies, and even gaps in various markets.

If you have questions or want to comment on anything I write here, please feel free.
