[...] This comes at a little surprise since I caught glimpse of Expression Blend, formerly known as Interactive Designer, at Microsoft’s Ready Summit in Melbourne a few weeks ago. A search at the Trademarks Office also revealed that the Expression Blend name is already approved (for rejection) just two days ago. The products being rebranded include: [...]

Hi Long:

I registered yesterday, clicked through and was able to view the webcast but the screen was very small. That is why I wanted to be able to download the webcast as a .wmv in the same way that I downloaded the other videos, which I then watched in WMP.

I would also like to be able to download the keynote slides. As one can see when you watch the video, the slides are actually larger than the video and there is a way to enlarge the slides. I could use the Snipping Tool to copy each one and then paste them into PowerPoint but that doesn’t seem to make me ready for a new day.

I just think it is odd that I am limited to watching the video in a format not much larger than a business card and using workarounds to end up with a slide deck. I can only conclude that Microsoft must have some reason for limiting the user interface and user experience for this video that doesn’t apply to the other videos.

I’m raising the white flag on this one. They’ve beat the desire to watch this video out of me.

@Robert Banghart: Ah I see your problem. You need to sign in with your registration for the Ready Summit Webcast. So you’re downloading the login page.

If you click the link, and fill out the registration form, you will be able to watch it then!

You’d need Internet Explorer to watch the video though, since it’s an interactive one with PowerPoint slides.

Hi Andrew:

I used the right-click Save Target As method to save the other videos on the page as .wmv’s but when I right click on the Ready Summit webcast and right-click, it only gives me the option to save as a 4KB HTM file.

I’ve tried to save that puppy in IE7 and in FF on XP Pro and Vista (Can you tell I’m pretty serious about wanting to watch it? )

I must be doing something wrong but for the life of me, I can’t figure out what. If you, or others, have been able to save it by right clicking on it, could you point me in the right direction for solving my problem?
