Well, it's been a while. Last week I contacted a friend of mine that I've known since grade school, we're great friends but always have trouble picking up the phone so we tend to go for long periods of time without talking. He mentioned that he's been keeping up with what I've been doing and tried a few times to contact me through my blog, he even mentioned that he had one of his friends try as well. I was pretty stumped but decided to investigate further. It turns out that my blog wasn't sending any of the emails along despite receiving a notice that "Message was sent successfully".

So if you've sent me a message recently, and haven't heard anything from me I am truly sorry but I never got any of the messages. The problem has been fixed so if you try to "Contact Me", I'll get the message if you'd like to try again or didn't get your question answered. I also did quite a bit of housekeeping on my blog too, I'm now upgraded to Community Server 2007 and have a bunch of the stuff turned off (like user registration) which really isn't needed for a single blog like mine.

As always if you have things with XNA Game Studio Express you's like to hear about or have covered let me know. We have a lot of the technical stuff out there on Shawn's blog and Eli's blog but there's always other stuff about what we're doing and where were going with the product that I'd be more than happy to write about. What other information would you like to hear about beyond coding with XNA Game Studio Express?

Either way Gamefest is less than a month away now, and it's hard to believe that it's almost been a year since we announced XNA Game Studio Express. As Dave hinted at on our forums, it seems to be a good time to talk about what might be coming next :-)
