Windows 8 on Samsung 700T Tablet at Microsoft BUILD http://mitchmckenna.com/post/10098/windows-8-on-samsung-700t-tablet-at-microsoft-build

Ryan Smith over at anandtech.com gives a great overview of Microsoft's pre-beta of the Windows 8 tablet interface from Anaheim, California at Microsoft’s BUILD conference.

Microsoft’s tagline for BUILD is that “Windows 8 changes everything”, and you will be using Windows 8 significantly differently from Windows 7. The big thing with Windows 8 is Metro. It's a very touch-friendly interface to Windows, not replacing the Windows desktop you know, but complimenting it. Metro includes many of the features found in other tablet OS's including an app store and lots of swipe interfaces.

PicPick | Robust Free Screen Capture App for Windows http://mitchmckenna.com/post/7108/picpick-robust-free-screen-capture-app-for-windows

I was looking for a screen capture app for Windows kind of like Shutter for Ubuntu. I tried Screenpresso at first, but @sl4cker on Friendfeed suggested I try PicPick.

This probably one of the most robust free screen capture programs I've come across. Share to FTP, E-mail, Facebook and twitter. Standard drawing, shapes, arrows, lines, text, and etc. Blur, sharpen, hue, contrast, brightness, pixelate, rotate, flip, frame effect and etc. There's also a portable version available as well!

Screenpresso | Free Screen Capture App for Windows http://mitchmckenna.com/post/7084/screenpresso-free-screen-capture-app-for-windows

I had been looking for something like this for a while. There's a lot out there, but I want something kind of like Shutter for Ubuntu. This one's got some nice editor features built in, and ability to share to twitter. Only thing I'm missing from Shutter is ability to upload to another image host such as ImageShack or something.
