It was another busy week for Windows Insiders as we had a total of five builds for Windows 10 (19H1 and 20H1) see their way to Windows Insiders test machines. The end is closing in quickly for the upcoming April 2019 Update and we will discuss all of those build related activities. I share a little about my quick trip to Cape Canaveral to see SpaceX’s launch Crew Dragon, the first crew rated vehicle since Shuttle in 2011, plus I update you on the suspended Twitter account for counting down to Windows 7 end of life cycle support, the remaining days for Microsoft Band and associated services and finally last month’s AdDuplex numbers for Windows 10. Of course, we also have HoloLens 2 news from MWC and all kinds of other items throughout the show.

Milestone Reached! Technically it is 301 episodes but I explain why this is the one and true 300th episode in this episode. I decided to mark this 300th show by talking about how an episode of Observed Tech comes together. Ranging from the hardware and software I use each week, the process of selecting what headlines make their way into the show, and some background statistics on the show itself over the last 9 1/2 years including the increased methods and channels for distribution. There are still a solid run of headlines and tidbits after the show background so listen from start tio finish to catch everything! Thanks for 300 episodes!

Welcome to Episode 149. This week we talk about the October Patch Tuesday updates which included a significant change made to the Internet Explorer default Tabs view, Microsoft’s impact on web security over the years, the POODLE vulnerability and YouTube’s malware ad distribution. Of course, no show is complete these days with out a discussion about the Windows 10 Technical Preview which now has over 1 million registered users according to Microsoft. On the legal front Microsoft can use Live Tiles without issue now and Getty can not get an injunction against Microsoft’s use of an image embedding widget on their Bing homepage. Have no fear – that is not all the news we discuss in today’s show so jump on in. Until next time enjoy the show and thanks for listening.
