Posted my thoughts on watching the Olympics on Media Center PC - http://santoshbala.com/2008/08/22/nbc-olympics-coverage-on-windows-media-center/ Summary - I just watched Michael Phelps win the Gold in the 100m butterfly by .01s, followed by Usain Bolt’s incredible 100m and 200m victories.

The birthday party was amazing - there were tons of kids and folks around. Believe there were around 70 guests. Kids were busy playing on the slides, painting clay pots, running around in the yard, and completely devouring the "Barney" cake.

The best part was Ashrith completely enjoying the chocolate cake made by Bente. Apart from the birthday celebration, this was also the celebration for Ashrith officially being in " Remission " stage in his Leukemia treatment. The last chemo for Ashrith was last month.

-+Local Roads Traffic in maps.live.com

Most of the online traffic or map services only show the Freeway and major Highway traffic.   This is definitely a wonderful value add to the Live Search Maps Service.  We used this today to decide the route to take to downtown from our house. It was great to be able to see the interior road condition and also see the alerts (such as traffic due to soccer game b/w Mexico and China in Qwest field :-)). -santosh
