Hi Guyz! Free Microsoft Software!

Are you a CS/IT College Student? Do you want to have Free Microsoft Software?  You’ve come to the right place! read further to learn what Microsoft has to offer JUST FOR YOU!

zup guyz it’s me ron and am here to share some services Microsoft has to offer just for you! Microsoft Software Licenses may be included to your Christmas List for this season and you can get them FOR FREE!

well, being a typical student just like you, I’m open to downloading or even buying some pirated software. why? well because as a student, i do not have much money to buy some expensive licenses! my allowance can’t handle that much amount! i believe that you are experiencing the same thing too right? well, Microsoft has heard of us! with this idea, Microsoft is now giving away Licenses just for us college students!

with that in mind, i would like to share to you 2 services. the MSDNAA which stands for “Microsoft Developer Network Academic Alliance” and the Dreamspark.

What is MSDNAA? well, MSDNAA is the easiest and most inexpensive way for students and faculty in the technology and design fields to get the latest Microsoft Software they need.

Microsoft Software such as the ever popular Windows 7 Operating System, Developer tools, Platform tools, and Design tools. There are so many software to choose from! from Visual Studio 2010 to Expression Studio, and many many more!!

MSDNAA is also available even in other countries. here in the Philippines, MSDNAA is now been given to CS/IT College students! did you know that? i didn’t know that until when i was in 3rd year. i wish i could have known that earlier. well, now that you know, what are you waiting for??!? go talk to your Network Administrator or  Microsoft Student Partner 🙂

now for the Dreamspark.. if your school doesn’t have an MSDN Subscription, you can go to Dreamspark! Dreamspark offers Developer and Design tools just for you!!!

wanna learn more bout Dreamspark? one of my co-MSP created a blog about it. a shoutout to Patrick Torres ! \m/ You can view his blog here

Homemade Microsoft Surface!

there is a fundamental change occuring in the world of technology. a new type of computer that is arriving in an unusual form.. of a coffee table.. xD

This picture is not the HOMEMADE Microsoft Surface.. it is the REAL ONE!

zup guyz it’s me, ron! and I’m here to share some cool stuff i saw when i went to an event at Microsoft Philippines! this speaker really got my attention. He talked about the Microsoft Surface Technology! not only did he talked about it, but – knowing that Microsoft surface is expensive – he created a home-made Microsoft surface – like device right at the office! do you know how he made it? so, you really want to know what is inside it? well, let’s first know what a Microsoft surface is.
This Microsoft surface computing technology is basically a table-top touch-sensitive computer that lets you move things around without a keyboard or mouse 🙂
how does it work? well, all you have to do, is to press down and have it recognize your hand. not only can you have a single point of contact but you can use all of your fingers! you can have dozens and dozens of pointed contact!
for viewing photos, it blends the best of the physical and the digital world, you can reach out a photo and move it across the table as you would in the real world and if you have a second or third frend with you , you can all interact with the photos at once – reshaping them, sizing them, moving them across the table. not only can you do this with photo content, but you have the ability to interact with digital content, in the form of video! you can actually shape and resize that, and you can do it with your friends at once. another cool thing about this is that it can recognize objects from the REAL WORLD. we call that “Object Recognition“
Object Recognition
for example, you are inside a cellphone store, and you would like to know the full specification of the phone you would like to buy. all you have to do is to get that phone, place it at the top of the Microsoft surface, and before you know it, all the specs are right beside (or should i say around) your device. not only that, you can actually compare two different cell phones or more! all you have to do is to place those phones at the table and turn it into its comparing mode then, let the surface do the comparing for you!
this is such a cool device! i would like to have it at my home so i can play with it more! but unfortunately, it is not YET available here in the Philippines, as far as i know (but if you’ve already seen one, come talk to me!, i may be wrong. haha) anyways, Microsoft surface is a phenomenon when it comes to surface computing. and simply to make it certain, i took a video of a homemade Microsoft Surface-like device! look!!
So basically there is a camera inside the surface that detects your fingers or any other objects that is on the surface. according to the speaker, you can just use a normal webcam and remove something which i couldn’t remember – sorry bout that xD.. which will also void the warranty of your webcam.. but well, you can just buy a cheap webcam and manipulate it inside, remove whatever that is needed for you to create your very own Microsoft surface! here is an image to make certain that you can see what’s inside the surface
It’s so cool! given only those tools, you can actually create a Microsoft Surface – like device at home! well, one of the Microsoft Bosses told us MSPs there to create something like that at the Microsoft Innovation Center(MIC), and i was like “That was nice! if that happens, I’m gonna pack my things up and live in MIC together with that Microsoft Surface, PLUS Xbox 360 PLUS Kinect PLUS the Windows Phone 7, that would be so awesome!!!” haha!! anyweiz going back to the topic, Microsoft surface really is something to make a big leap into the world of technology.

Dynamayt!


Microsoft’s octoBURNfest is roaming the universities with the Microsoft Student Partners (MSP) to give out seminars and FREE Genuine Licenses of Microsoft Developer and Design Tools which includes the ever popular Windows7 Operating System \m/

iACADEMY MSPs together with JPCS iACADEMY a.k.a. “ayt!” formed an event called Dynamayt! some of you were thinking why Dynamayt!? instead of Dynamite? well, we would just like to include the name of our organization in the event title. haha! anyweiz, in this event, we planned to have a breakout session fit to the course of the attendees. The breakout includes Technopreneurship by Mr. Isaac Bulatao for Business Administration students, Ethical Hacking by Mr. Terrence Montanes for Software Engineering students, and Digital Painting by Martin Del Mundo for Digital Arts and Animation students. after the breakout session, the actual iACADEMY octoBURNfest takes place. this includes seminars given by Microsoft. the talks were MSDNAA/Imagine Cup by Ms. Mellie Valimento, Microsoft Motto: IT Career Enhancement by Mr. Cristopher Abary, Microsoft Expression Studio by Mr. Cesar Cuaresma and Microsoft Web Apps by Ms. Angela Garong.

Dynamayt! was a fun filled activity. this is the first Big Event of ayt! here at iACADEMY. a lot of effort has been made just to make this event possible. of course this event won’t be possible if not for the ayt! Officers and MSPs that visited us from other schools. well done guyz! take a look at some of the pics:

Here is a short clip of Ms. Mellie Valimento that i got for you guyz. i got this video right after her talk:

orayt! as what ive said earlier this event wont be possible if not for the people behind Dynamayt! thanks guyz for supporting this event, i hope that iACADEMY students learned a lot from this event. i hope that this will be their stepping stone for them to keep their fire burning for their future.. nyahahaha!!!
