We are now less than 30 days away from launch and our online activities are now heating up.<\/p>\n

Portrait Gallery Launched<\/b><\/p>\n

Last week, we launched the HHH Portrait Gallery, a Silverlight 1.0 application which allows everyone and anyone to upload stories about themselves \u2013 showing why they are IT Heroes, what technology they are using, and which products are they most looking forward to.\u00a0 Users can comment, link and send links to a friend.\u00a0 Best of all we have 7 different languages (English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese and Chinese) – so you can upload and search in these languages, switch between them and view how other people across the world are being IT Hero’s.\u00a0 You can access this via the HHH site, or directly by visiting www.microsoft.com\/heroeshappenhere\/portraitgallery\/start.aspx – please upload your profile information, as we want to get as many people as possible.<\/p>\n
