Frustrating...

Anyone else using Outlook 2007 for reading RSS feeds?

Great job by 1E, Microsoft, and myitforum.com for a heck of a party. Lots of awards given out (no purses this year), lots of food and drink, lots of great conversation, and a free XBOX 360 and Zune to a couple of lucky folks. It was great to get to finally meet all of the behind the scenes folks who...
