DRAFT Maintaining Your Voice: Using AI Voice Profiles for Consistent Content Creation
As someone who’s been blogging about technical topics for years, I’ve always struggled with consistency. Some articles feel more conversational, others too formal. Some include helpful context and anecdotes, others jump straight into code. The voice varies depending on when I wrote it, how much coffee I’d had, and what mood I was in that day.
What if I could capture my writing style—the good parts—and have AI help me maintain that consistency across everything I write?

Using Multiple Desktops for Presentations
Have you ever sat through a presentation, watching the presenter struggle to find the next browser tab, code window, slide deck, etc., to continue the show? Or watch that awkward transition from slides to demos and back? Or the presenter uses Alt-Tab, but has dozens of apps open and struggles to find the right one? I know you have and it might have been one of my sessions! I learned a while back about a technique to make your presentations just flow from one section to the next. If you are using Windows, multiple desktops make these transitions fast and seamless.

Community Cloudcast - Discussing the true cost of Cloud Computing
I recently had the opportunity to join the crew from Community Cloudcast to discuss the true cost of moving to the cloud. Normally, the show has three hosts: Eric Shupps, Jason Himmelstein, and Paul McCollum.
Unfortunately, Jason and Paul were not available, so Eric and I tackled the subject on our own. As always, discussions with Eric are very informative, as well as entertaining.
You can watch the entire webcast below. I had a lot of fun doing this and hope to be invited back for future discussions.

Developing SPFx solutions using Docker
This is the third of 4 articles on using containers for SharePoint Framework (SPFx) development.
Disclaimer
While I have learned a lot about containers over the last 2 years, I do not claim to be the final authority on this topic. My goal over these next 4 articles is share what I have learned and how I use that knowledge in my daily life as a SPFx developer. Containers are not just for SPFx but work on many developer technologies. In fact, I used containers, primarily Codespaces, to write this blog, which uses Hugo/Go. I encourage you to do the research and make your life easier.
