TechNet 2.0 – the big reveal starts tomorrow

Tomorrow I’ll be releasing Episode 1 of a series of blog posts and podcasts on TechNet 2.0.  TechNet 2.0 (TN20) is the project name for a series of improvements we are making to the IT Pro services at https://technet.microsoft.com.

It would be helpful for me to know how many of you would like more than just Windows Media Audio (WMA) for the episodes that include podcasts.  For instance, tomorrow I’ll be posting the first episode with a Silverlight audio player embedded in the blog post.  I’ll also provide a link to the .WMA file at an attachment to the post.  The attachment will be a properly constructed <ENCLOSURE> so you can subscribe to the feed for the series from a Zune or other player.

Should I just blow off even providing WMA and instead use MP3?  MP3 seems to be the happy medium because it can be used everywhere that I know of, including an iPod.  Chime in and let me know.  I figure someone out there has an iPod.

You’ll also notice I created a tag for this series of posts.  This will give you a unique RSS feed for the information. TN20 is the project acronym so it seemed like a nice string to use for a blog category and feed.  I’ll likely use TN20 as a has tag on twitter as well.

More information and a interview with Microsoft Group Program Manager John Martin here tomorrow.
