Microsoft released Windows 7 in late October 2009. Windows 7 is not an upgrade to Vista, but an entirely new operating system. On Wednesday, November 4 from 1:00 to 2:30 PM, UNH IT will host a Microsoft Windows 7 demo in MUB 338. Microsoft’s Matt Hickey will be on hand to demonstrate new improvements and features of Windows 7, such as the improved taskbar, jump lists, DirectAccess, enhanced security and control, bitlocker to go, and more.
UPDATE: The Windows 7 demo was a great success! Thanks to all in attendance for stopping by and checking out the new design of Windows 7 . In case you missed it, here’s the PowerPoint shown at the event.

Facebook is now allowing third party web applications to use it’s own user authentication and link to user’s own Facebook account. Your Facebook login information can be used to log into other websites or comment a blog, even help you connect with more friends. Facebook says it is part of an initiative to eliminate the use of multiple usernames and passwords, which creates a great security risk. Some of Facebook’s partners for Connect include CBS, CNET, Disney-ABC Television, Hulu, Loopt, Plaxo, Radar, Red Bull, Seesmic, StumbleUpon, The Insider, and Twitter.
