Free Linux Driver Development!!!
This is truly amazing and something that Microsoft will never be able to do.
Linux kernel development com unity agreed to support EVERY hardware device available as long as manufacturer is able to provide specifications or answer questions. All NDA requirements will be met as well. All development will be done free of charge so their developers "will have more time to work on drivers for all of the other operating systems out there"
This really shows the power of the open source development efforts.

AnkhSVN 1.0 released!
This is a great milestone. AnkhSVN is released.
For those who do not know, AnkSVN is an add-in for Visual Studio that provides SVN Integration. I've been using it for the last 2 years as beta and it was great. Definitely a step above prior VSS integration.

Finally streaming everything through my XBox 360
I was beginning to miss XBMC on my old XBOX. I used to be able to look at videos stored on my PC. However 360 can only stream WMV videos, and those dont come around too often.
But not I just found this little jewel: TVersity (http://tversity.com). The app is AWESOME. I am watching an AVI streamed to my XBOX 360 as I am writing this entry.
