Bill Gates: How a Geek Changed the World

From the BBC’s website:

The Money Programme’s Fiona Bruce gains exclusive access to Bill Gates as he prepares to step down from full-time involvement with Microsoft, the company he helped found. Gates’s company has changed the world, but he’s a controversial figure, with his ruthless business leadership contributing to Microsoft being sued by the US government.”

Apparently Bill is in top form during this chat so set your recorders!

This is great news. Yet again we’re showing our mettle by investing in a hub to accelerate Live Search developments here in the UK and the rest of Europe.

At adChamps the other day the feedback was, “why does the US always get stuff first?”

Well this is your answer……it won’t for long!

So when this group of developers get set up, what do you want to see first?

Just had a mail asking me to sign up!

It costs £30!!!

That’s about the same as the London Marathon for just a 10k.

Pro-rata that’s £126 :-(

They maybe donating £3 to charities but with all the cross-selling going on on their site it makes me very uncomfortable.

It’s obviously become a huge earner for them and far to high a price to pay for your average runner.

I’ll run around Richmond Park that day for nothing!

The iBar ultra-lounge located at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas is the first public place to get a Microsoft Surface Table.

The 30-inch table display includes customised applications such as: Flirt, Mixologists, Hip-notic, Head Games and See and Be Seen!

It’s a helluva coup for the Harrah’s Hotel ,and what an appropriately decadent debut for something as MAD and BRILLIANT as Surface.
