Help Design the "Next Generation" Script Center- March 25, 2004 Hey, guys. I apologize for being absent for so long from this space, but this time of year it&8217;s hard for me to find the time to do things like blogs. Now, that might sound a bit odd; after all, as a Microsoft Scripting Guy, isn&8217;t it my job to do things like scripting blogs Well, to tell you the truth, it&8217;s not. People always say to me, &8220;Man, what a great job you have, just sitting around writing about scripting all day.&8221; And you know what: that is a great job; it&8217;s.http://blogs.msdn.com/gstemp/archive/2004/03/24/95772.aspx Book Review: Administrator's Top 10 Introductory Scripts- March 9, 2004 One of the reasons I thought we should do a scripting blog is because there are a lot of things (like book reviews) that we can&8217;t do on TechNet.

Joys ... of Scripting- March 3, 2004 Yesterday was an interesting day. I went into the little editor they have for this blog site, and &8211; like I always do &8211; copied the day&8217;s entry out of Word and pasted it into the editor. Everything looked hunky-dory, so I clicked the Submit button, logged out, and went back to work. A little while later, I got a couple of emails telling me that the bottom half of the article was unreadable. That&8217;s nothing new; heck, most of the things I write are unreadable.
