I sure wish the CSS3 grid was 0-based. I'm constantly flipping mentally when going between JS and CSS.

VS2012 setup > JS Dev settings = no Line Numbers setting in Options...very funny. Click "Show all" and it reappears.
Just deleted my "metro style" Google alert... #win8 #designlanguagethatshallnotbenamed
Reminder: Print functionality is found under Devices in the #Win8 Charms bar (Just saying it out loud so I don't forget...)
n the #Win8 Dev Center they should mark all pre Release Preview threads as deprecated, would save time wading through old misleading threads
Hey, I missed my two year anniversary of becoming independent, because I was on vacation. Work hard, play hard! Now to plan what's next...
Hah! While testing how smooth the Pointer events work on Fruit Ninja, I accidentally closed the app while slicing fruit...hmm...not good.
Vacation winding down, lots of fun, but I am looking forward to heading home soon

I'm happy to see the System Command menu is now available on every monitor in #Win8 Release Preview
I almost always mistype "network" as "netwrok". I think its because I'm truly one of "those about to rock" all the time. I salute you.
Interesting -> @WPDevCon - 1st major independent conference for software developers 100% focused on Windows Phone. Oct 22-24 - SF Bay Area.
Interesting, the most downloaded #Win8 sample on MSDN is SplashScreen - showing you how to extend the preload time http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windows... hmm
Exploring Windows 8 XAML today, its just familiar enough to be a little confusing. Who moved my cheese?
Another WinJS / Win8 dev must -> two monitors: one for Metro, one for desktop. The Simulator can help you get by until the 2nd one arrives.
Doing WinJS dev for Win8? Make sure you grok this sucker first -> WinJS.Promise http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us... Afterwards, life is good.
