Exchange 2010 – Buying an SSL certificate

In: Ramblings

If you want to buy a certificate for your Exchange 2010 server, and I suggest that you do instead of generating a self signed cert, have a look over at Entrust. We recently bought a 4 year cert from Entrust by recommendation of DGC whom helped us migrate from Exchange 2003 to 2010. So what’s [...]

Public SDK for NET TV in the works!

In: Ramblings

I attended and spoke at a breakfast seminar hosted by Philips and DoRight Group together with Mårten Wahlström from Svensk Fastighetsförmedling last week.

In: Ramblings, iPhone

Spotify is an awesome app for the iPhone, however, you need a premium account. Or do you? Most users will probably use the off-line mode to avoid the sometimes overly expensive data plans.

Avantime has been working with EPiServer for over 6 years and some clients has been with us since then. [...]

In: Ramblings

This post has absolutely nothing to do with .NET, iPhones or programming in general, I apologize. However, I am a huge fan of the UFC and so is my girl friend Anna (fortunately). We enjoyed the UFC 99 show today on big screen in our living room and both reacted when Logan Stanton, one of [...]

The war on IE6 – 3 months update

Three months ago I wrote a post about “the war” on IE6. We joined in with svenskfast.se and posted a warning to visitors with IE6 that they should upgrade their browser. Another big site who also did this was Aftonbladet, Sweden’s most visited tabloid/news site. I promised I would follow up with some statistics on whether [...]
