This is more of a short rant than anything.  For the most part I like Bing.  Once in a while I still find I get better results from Google.  The main thing I find myself missing that I had with Google is the blog search feature.  All to often I can filter out a lot of garbage just by using that option.  So my request is “when will Bing implement blogsearch”?

Cloud services such as Azure from Microsoft and Amazon’s Cloud Services have replaced Web 2.0 as the latest buzz word.  It was enlightening to see how companies, including my own, are using these services.

Chris did a wonderful job of explaining the evolution of the Amazon services and some of the alternatives that existing.  It was also great to get a speaker in front of the group who isn’t from the Microsoft camp.

Thanks to those who came out after meeting us at the MSDN Cloud Computing and Azure event.

Please come and join us for our next meeting.  I will be sending out an announcement later today with the details.
