Come back tonight at a little after 9 p.m. Pacific Time tonight.
Some big multi-billion-dollar corporation would like to announce something.
Why?
Developers, developers, developers!
🙂
Like I said, Mix07 is gonna be interesting and, no, I don’t need to be inside the conference to have a front-seat position on the battlefield.
UPDATE: the news is now up.

Just guessing here… With “Developers, developers, developers!” you refer to MS but could it be something from the Google?
Some kind of an online development environment, and/or a new programming language?
You do have the “Developer Tools” tag there. 😉
We’ll see.

Hmmm … “multi billion dollar company” does narrow it down somewhat, but not quite far enough to put a finger on it! 9:00pm there = midnight here at the other end; guess I’ll wait until tomorrow 😦

Hi,
we are a portuguese group of students and we’re doing a project in human resources management about Google. Since you work (worked) there, we wonder if you could answer a set of 6 quick-aswer questions and maybe 2 or 3 fellow workers of yours too. It won’t take long. If you’re available, our email is renata.carneira@gmail.com.
Thank You!

If it is a *full* .Net runtime, feature complete, on OSX I’d be happy. Not bothered about VS.Net (it is a mess) but .Net would make my week. If they can get Apple to ship it with Leopard then better still.
More realistically have Microsoft decided to actually release some *working* dev tools for WPF on XP? 😛

Everything MS put out was supposed to be ground breaking these past 10 years. If anything people have systematically flocked away from their tools in the past few years.
I remember the same type of thing when ASP.net came out. How separating the code from the style was so revolutionary, and how code behind was going to be all the rage.
What actually ended up happening?
Most people ended up using PHP instead.
This is probably something about MS Atlas or something lame like that.
I just got my Linux Journal in the mail yesterday though, and guess what?
http://www.linuxjournal.com/
Woops they did it again. CoverPage page too. Atlas will be the new obscure MS technology like aspx was a couple years ago.
Where’s that oragami buzz now Mr.?

Since Scoble says it regards “Developers! Developers! Developers!”, I’m thinking it’s something other than Google Apps, or Google anything.

Rocky, I need ELCO cables with TRS plugs for my adat machines. I only got XLRs with them.

I found some on ebay, but I can’t order them new here in Canada because ELCO cables are no longer being made. Musiciansfriend does not want to ship them to Canada, because they are special order.
I only need 1 more ELCO snake for my 3 ADAT XT20’s.
Do you know what online store I could buy it at?
It’s not that I don’t like computer recording. I have an RME hammerfall with 24 tracks in ADAT optical, BUT, I enjoy having the actual machines there in the rack with the BRC before I dump it into the computer.
I can no longer use XLRs and I really need 1 more ELCO to TRS to hook up to my console. Any info is appreciated, thanks.

These won’t work with ADATs.
There’s one up on ebay but the ELCO adapter is female.
Musiciansfriend just refuses to ship special order to Canada. They will only do in stock.
What I will have to end up doing is buying another used ADAT XT20 on ebay and just take the ELCO cable and resell the machine. Otherwise I may have to wait ages for one with a male ELCO to show up there.
Thanks for trying though.
If your lead involves getting one for $50 or something please share, because I would still be interested.

I purchased this RME card to go along with the stanford http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/
I could have just lined everything in directly with 3 cheap AD/DA converters, but not having recorders or the BRC anymore just takes away from the recording whole experience. The more LEDs the better.

That should read the “whole recording experience”.
I’m going to buy another ADAT next week if I can’t find just the cable, so if you have a lead, let me know before then. Somebody may have an old ELCO/TRS cable lying around collecting dust and I would so pay $50-60 for it plus shipping because I need it.
