I am sitting at a big office in the capital of China.
This is the forth day I am in this big city.
In the last four days, the area I moved around is within 200 meters.
I stay in the Renaissance Hotel and the office is the building beside it. I didn’t take taxi these days – remember, this is a business trip, not a vocation.
Beijing is not as Hot as Shanghai
The weather of Beijing is nice, not as hot as Shanghai. After rain, it is crystal clear again. I can see mountains at three directions surrounding Beijing.
The Beijing airport is on the north. If you look on the northeast direction, you can see two or three plane line up near the landscape with exactly the same distance between, heading to the airport. The flies lower and lower. It is interesting scene. Beijing airport is the busiest airport in China, so the planes land one after the other.
I Love Technical Stuff
These days, I go to bed at 00:30 everyday. It takes some time to pick up technologies that I didn’t touch for two years. So I have to work hard. The good thing is, I found I am more happier to try to understand how programs runs. I checked my previous entry and found this one: I Still Know Software – ClearType and SmartTags. It is the feeling when I am living technical stuff.
I am researching on RMS (Right Management Service in Windows 2003). It is a very interesting topic.
Tip: Search Functions
With more than 700 entries on this site, the most effective way to location information is to use the Search box on the top of each page. It is my way to locate my old articles. Actually, if I need anything I remember I wrote before, I just type wangjianshuo keyword in the Google Toolbar and it always takes to the right page.
Update on Notification Problems
I will not send notification of this post to my Wangjianshuo’s Blog Update alias, before I fix the terrible multi-send problem. I heard most readers get 25 email with the same content. It is nightmare. But if you want to join the update to receive a notification when a new entry is posted (everday), you can join the update now. The subscription form is at the end of each page. There are 128 memembers right now, and it has been stable for about a month with one or two new members joining everyday and the same number of readers leaving. I will be happy if I see the number of total member increases.
Microsoft Announces Windows Rights Management Services For Windows Server 2003
Rights Management Solution Will Give Organizations and Employees New Ways To Protect Information
REDMOND, Wash., Feb. 21, 2003 — Microsoft Corp. today announced plans for Windows® Rights Management Services (RMS), a new technology for Windows Server 2003 that will give organizations advanced ways to help secure sensitive internal business information including financial reports and confidential planning documents. Windows Rights Management Services will work with applications to provide a platform-based approach to providing persistent policy rights for Web content and sensitive corporate documents of all types. Beta code for Windows Rights Management Services will be broadly available in the second quarter of 2003.
“Customers have told us they need better solutions to help safeguard their critical business information,” said Mike Nash, corporate vice president of the Security Business Unit at Microsoft. “What’s really compelling about Rights Management technology is that it enables businesses to protect the information they most worry might leak – either deliberately or inadvertently – by putting persistent protections in the documents themselves.”
Using Windows Rights Management Services, applications such as information portals, word processors or e-mail clients can be built so that users will be able to easily designate both who can have access to specific content and what kinds of access rights they can have. Rights and policy are managed by the server, while clients running RMS-enabled applications allow users to apply rights with a click of a button. For example, Windows Rights Management Services can be used to control forwarding, copying and printing, as well as establishing time-based expiration rules. In addition, enterprises can enforce policy broadly and reliably by centrally delivering templates that automate the process – for example, making the policy around what constitutes “company confidential” uniform and easy to manage.
Because Windows Rights Management Services technology is an ASP.NET Web service built on the Microsoft® .NET Framework, it can more easily interoperate with business processes via Web services. RMS technology uses XrML (Extensible Rights Markup Language), an emerging standard for the expression of rights on digital content. Microsoft will release two software development kits in the second quarter of 2003 to enable developers to begin to build rights management capabilities into a broad range of intra-enterprise solutions and applications for Windows clients.
Hmm, Jianshuo, I read your blog more frequently than I check my own Yahoo-email, so maybe I’ll cancel my subscription too !
So don’t be surprised if someone drops off, it can be for a good reason.
Go to sleep soon, business trips IS exhausting, so get some sleep
(after calling Wendy, of course).
I agree with Carsten…though I haven’t subscribed to your email notification list. However, I’ve already bookmarked your site so I always check it everyday for new posts. :D
