The Zune Software is the stuff legend. In its first iteration it was an epic disaster, a horrible blend of most of Windows Media Player’s core functionality and absolutely none of the current software’s pizzazz. Starting in Zune 2 Microsoft did however bring the A-game and managed to create one of the best damn interfaces [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-the-zune-software-is-hard-to-use/feed/ 6 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-chefs-and-kitchen-nightmares/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-chefs-and-kitchen-nightmares/#comments Sun, 23 May 2010 23:43:21 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-chefs-and-kitchen-nightmares/
It’s been a month since I’ve found it necessary to do sit-down Sunday, and mostly it’s not because there weren’t any big issues, but mostly because I haven’t been on my game. Nevertheless it’s time to put the running shoes on and get back in the race, so hit the grown running I shall. I’ve [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-chefs-and-kitchen-nightmares/feed/ 0 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-what-is-zune/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-what-is-zune/#comments Sun, 02 May 2010 20:33:14 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-what-is-zune/
With only the summer to go and the excitement for WindowsPhone with Zune integration (or as I like to call it, Zune Phone) building I started thinking this afternoon about what an actual Zune branded experience is and why we should be excited for it. Soon we’ll be able to drop our dedicated devices and [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-what-is-zune/feed/ 2 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-some-bad-ideas-are-just-bad-ideas/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-some-bad-ideas-are-just-bad-ideas/#comments Mon, 12 Apr 2010 02:23:53 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-some-bad-ideas-are-just-bad-ideas/
The last couple of weeks I’ve put everyone through some of the longest Sunday Sitdowns the site has ever seen. We’ve talked about issues that pleased some and pissed off a few so this week I wanted to talk about something not of a serious nature. As it turns out it just wouldn’t be a [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-some-bad-ideas-are-just-bad-ideas/feed/ 2 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-how-high/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-how-high/#comments Sun, 04 Apr 2010 15:14:00 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-how-high/
This week Microsoft got all official on the ZuneHD’s 64gb variant, allowing you to carry loads more music, video, and television shows then you could on any other flash Zune before. Now I know the more jaded of you will tell me that it’s now time for a 128gb Zune, (see we’ve been doing this [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-how-high/feed/ 4 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-sdks-and-getting-a-grip/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-sdks-and-getting-a-grip/#comments Sun, 21 Mar 2010 16:30:00 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-sdks-and-getting-a-grip/
Although I think that title pretty much sums up what I’m thinking right now, I’d like to elaborate. Many a Zune user this past two weeks have worked themselves up into a tizzy because their ZuneHDs neither have a Software Development Kit, released by Zune nor are they compatible with Microsoft’s forthcoming XNA 4.0 development [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-of-sdks-and-getting-a-grip/feed/ 7 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sit-down-a-new-zunespring-begins/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sit-down-a-new-zunespring-begins/#comments Mon, 15 Feb 2010 02:12:23 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sit-down-a-new-zunespring-begins/
Those who follow the ZuneSpring on my personal Twitter will know that tomorrow starts a big week for us. First at Mobile World Conference Microsoft is preparing for what could very well be the keynote to make or break Steve Ballmer’s career as well as change the face of both Windows Mobile & Zune alike.

  With the MVP Summit just under a month away, it’s important for to Zune & myself told start getting feedback on just what the community would like to see come out of an update Zune software, Zune Hardware, and Zune Services. Your opinion counts! I’ll be creating forum topics at ZuneSpring, Zunerama, Zunited, ZuneEgg, [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sundaysitdown-countdown-to-the-mvp-summit/feed/ 4 http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-bad-reviews-or-bad-reviewer/ http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-bad-reviews-or-bad-reviewer/#comments Sun, 27 Dec 2009 16:34:19 +0000 Travis Pope http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-bad-reviews-or-bad-reviewer/
Each week we take a look at hot topics & issues surrounding the Zune and other related Microsoft technologies. Ah Christmas that most pleasant time of year, a time for snow, a time for family, a time for redeeming that most precious of holiday gifts, the gift card! “Hey ya BestBuy.com, let’s see what good [...]]]> http://zunespring.com/index.php/sunday-sitdown-bad-reviews-or-bad-reviewer/feed/ 0
