A few months back, we kicked off some work with St John's University on integrating Exchange Labs with their deployment of Luminis.  In summary, St John's wanted to enable students that were logged onto the Luminis portal to be able to bring up their email in OWA without being challenged for authentication on our service.  A screen-shot ...

I had a conversation with a customer the other day about what kings of things should they be doing in their first week or so with Exchange Labs...is there a checklist anywhere for example?  Well we do provide starter guidance in the materials we send out during the enrollment process...but I thought I would complement this here for you. I came up ...

http://techxploration.spaces.live.com/   What better way to bring the latest technology to the masses than to do a tour!  Visit the link above, and see if someone from Microsoft will be arriving on your campus soon!  Even better, check out the recording of the tour destiniation on Virtual Earth.   Jonny

I am surprised that the Microsoft Environmental team still talks to me. They launched a really cool Microsoft Environment site back in May and I have been remiss in sharing that with my Virtual Earth for Public Sector readers. The site shares how Microsoft and its partners use innovative technologies and responsible business practices to address ...

A customer asked me today about where you can get the 'New-ClosedCampus.ps1' and 'New-EthicalWall.ps1' scripts.  They wanted to experiment with blocking mail to and from certain mail domains and mailboxes.  I had to admit, I didn't know where these files could be obtained from.  I tried the technet site, I tried the Connect site...eventually I had ...

In the run-up to the start of the new term, the past few weeks have been nuts...back-to-back conf calls...some of them were even with customers ;-)  The Exchange Labs service is really taking off in a big way now, and the excitement in getting the service ready for back to school/college is tangible...my thanks to each and every customer that has ...

I am often asked by public sector customers about the ability to consume Virtual Earth imagery outside of Virtual Earth. This was recently made possible within ESRI ArcGIS tools and is now made possible completely offline through two new resellers, i-cubed and MapMart.com. The following are points from an announcement that was distributed late ...

Here's a technology I really haven't discussed much on the Virtual Earth for Public Sector blog (shame on me). Until now, Photosynth was a  Live Labs research project that you could just get a glimpse of through a technology preview web site. But the Photosynth team was recently moved into the Virtual Earth team and has released an official ...

I am at the Microsoft Federal kickoff meeting this week, where we are looking forward to a great new fiscal year serving Public Sector customers. Seems an appropriate day for the Microsoft Virtual Earth team and ESRI to have announced an enhanced partnership that is going to allow ArcGIS 9.3 users one click access to Virtual Earth maps and imagery ...
