Over the course of 30 or so minutes we wax lyrical about Danny&#8217;s time at Borland, Google, a variety of product battles, Windows Live security, RAD development environments, working remotely, Silverlight vs soapbox, etc.  We also chat about the Borland folks that we both know and discuss where they are now&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/DannyThorpe-WorkInfo.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/podcasts\/RSSPodCasts.xml\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/images\/podcast_rssfeed.gif\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/podcasts\/RSSPodcasts.xml\">Podcast feed &#8211; subscribe here!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This podcast:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/podcasts\/019-MIX07-Danny-Thorpe.mp3\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/images\/podcast_listen.gif\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Resources &#038; Related Posts<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/dthorpe\/\">http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/dthorpe\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/?p=701\">Scott Lovegrove interviews Danny Thorpe and Angus Logan <\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/?p=704\">NxtGenUG chaps on Mix07, including mentions of Scott Guthrie, Robby Ingebretan, Simon Peyton Jones<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/?p=720\">027 &#8211; MIX07 &#8211; Jim McNiven and Chris Hardy &#8211; Viral Marketing <\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/?p=708\">026 &#8211; MIX07 &#8211; Men Of Iron &#8211; Michael Foord, Dave Verwer &#8211; IronPython, IronRuby, the DLR<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/?p=689\">018 &#8211; MIX07 &#8211; Scott Lovegrove on Windows Live Services<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/?p=685\">017 &#8211; MIX07 &#8211; Hugh MacLeod &#8211; the inspiration behind the Blue Monster <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Technorati Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Danny+Thorpe\" rel=\"tag\">Danny Thorpe<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Borland\" rel=\"tag\">Borland<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Google\" rel=\"tag\">Google<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Gears\" rel=\"tag\">Gears<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Google+Gears\" rel=\"tag\">Google Gears<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/WinForms\" rel=\"tag\">WinForms<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/VCL\" rel=\"tag\">VCL<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/BCL\" rel=\"tag\">BCL<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Windows+Live+Services\" rel=\"tag\">Windows Live Services<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Windows+Live+Writer\" rel=\"tag\">Windows Live Writer<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/MIX07\" rel=\"tag\">MIX07<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Windows+Live+Quantum+Mechanic\" rel=\"tag\">Windows Live Quantum Mechanic<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Facebook\" rel=\"tag\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Twitter\" rel=\"tag\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to podcast #019.
