No Office for Windows 8 any time soon

According to this site, a Metro version of Microsoft Office won’t be along until much later in the year (Q3, Q4 – knowing Microsoft that means Q4).

I don’t get this  – how can one of the largest software companies in the world take so long? Metro is currently awash with glorified RSS readers, it desperately needs some capable software that does something useful. Just as iOS has iWorks and iPhoto to demonstrate its true potential, Windows 8 needs something other than pretty weather apps to prove its worth, and no, re-skinning desktop software doesn’t work.

I like Siri

But wouldn’t it be great if you didn’t have to speak to it?

Google Now seems like a preferred approach, you tell it the teams you follow, and where you work (or it works it out), and the information just appears when it’s needed.

Breaking Bad

Currently on season 3 of this and really enjoying it. Very much a dark comedy most of the time. Great to see more successful shows from X-Files alumni.
