From the Microsoft Team RSS Blog comes Simple List Extensions in action. This is an addition to RSS that is long overdue. I like the fact that this is already in use at sites like eBay, Amazon, and Yahoo! Now, can we get this working with Bloglines, Feedview in Firefox, and all the other great aggregators?

Run! Don't' walk, if this is true (which it now is). According to virtualization.info Microsoft will be handing out Virtual Server 2005 R2 for free tomorrow. It might also be wise to buy some stock in memory and HD companies and then do some upgrades yourself for this fine piece of software.

Of course VMware is already offering their, perhaps even better, VMware Server free along with a number of pre-built appliances.
