Windows 10 one more chapter

It was with excitement that i spend this day, i was curious to see the faces of my tech colleagues and pals when a new chapter of Windows 10 would be revealed.

see everything about the today’s event at:  http://news.microsoft.com/windows10story/

Today a litle more of Windows 10 had been shown to the world. The hot topics of yesterday presentation and anoucements were:

Delivering Windows as a service

A free upgrade to Windows 10

The New experiences that Windows 10 brings

Was also a good opportunity to answer the doubts about what will happen to the Universal Windows Store App’s that many had been asking on the community.

Cortana and other usability and IA add ons were the bright sars of the presentation, also the gesture and agmented reality had been exposed.

In the past i was to say that Windows 8 was made for people was the first step to achieve what Windows 10 will continue. Persons are not all the same needs are different and personification and personalization on the digital is the track to unify digital and reality.

Just one more thought about yesterday presentation Terry Myerson was a giant on the stage, you can read also his excellent post explaining each step of this next chapter on http://news.microsoft.com/windows10story/.

Windows 10 is each day closer to the user and with more information out here we will start to present the most tricky and techy things here.

Had you installed the preview already?

GitHub as a source control tool

I had been using GitHub as a source control tool for some years, every time i have a new person working with me over GitHub or a on premise Git installation we have a problem of what documentation to give him to really start their engines in using git.

I don´t know if you had the same feeling?!

But even with the need of adjustment especially for developers and scrum masters who came from more complete tools like Microsoft TFS.

 

If at this stage you are using Git or if you had the need to explain Git to someone i would suggest you to take a look at this material that had been a great help to help to bring developers especially experience developers that are used to other types of source control and junior developers that are starting to use version control.

Git Immersion – A good website for the ones who want to know conceptual structure of Git but need a step by step help to start using and have a quick need of tart using Git for work.

Pro Git – a very complete ebook, that explain in a clear way the conceptual structure of Git and the way you can use. A great book for who have the need to have a strong KB about Git.

You can also get from slideshare my hands on lab and slides used in my workshops about source code with Git

I hope this information is so value for you as had been to me in the past and present times.
