Windows 8 Know IT Guyde

Posted on by

There is a lot of info out there around Windows 8.  For my own personal reasons, I wanted to get the BEST of it, all in one place.  A place I could refer back to and a place I could refer others.  It’s a working document, growing and changing as time passes.  It can also be influenced by you.  Leave a comment here of your favorite Windows 8 resource, send me a link in twitter (@jcollison), post it out to our Facebook group or send it to me in an email, podcast@theAverageGuy.tv.  However you choose, I will give you credit

Blogging from Windows 8 using Windows Live Writer 2012

Posted on by

It appears that the word “live” didn’t get removed from all the old Windows Live Essentials 2011 Apps when they upgraded the suite to Windows Essentials 2012 (WE2012).  I just installed WE2012 on a newly minted Windows 8 Enterprise Laptop (I am a Microsoft TechNet subscriber and the RTM version is available there now) to test the user experience and discovered that like Windows Live Mail and Windows Live Messenger, the live brand has yet to be removed from Windows Live Writer (WLW).  Good, one less thing I have to change. Surface RT, now starting at $349 at Microsoft Store
