Took about 20 minutes for the webcast email to finally arrive.

I think the server is flooded - Keep refreshing, and after about 5 minutes or so you should get an actual page, rather than the error. Make sure you use IE6 also - I'm using Firefox with the IE6 tab plugin.

The webcasts are an hour long...Heres a screenshot.

you do realize posting this on a site like neowin just reduces the chances that anyone will ever get anything. After being hammered by about 200,000 14 year olds, i'm pretty sure you'll be lucky to get anything at all.

I hope they strictly enforce the eligibility requirements.

Thats exactly why I did not post it anywhere when I found out about this yesterday. ;)

:angry: I keep getting "Sorry, a System Error Occurred" every time I try to register. Grrr...

Here's another rant: It requires Internet Explorer! :crazy: When will Microsoft learn, their stupid little browser isn't the own one in the world. Grrrrrrrr......

somehow I was able to register.. but in the help page it says:

If you are not signed-in, click the "Sign In" button in the Top Left of the Home Page.

Once signed-in, click the "My Events" link in the Top Left.

This will take you to a page listing all your webcasts and allow you to view or schedule

But problem is I dont have any link called "My Events" but I have a link called "Your Stuff". Does anyone else have something like this?.

Your Stuff is where your selections are.

I know this is my first post but I felt compelled-

I just spoke with MS within the half hour to ask about this site and they told me that they have already got several calls about this.

according to the MS rep who checked this for me this is a SCAM site.

they told me to not use it it is not legitimate.............

I have participated in several of these offers and they always ask you in one way or another about W9 information, it's for tax purposes.

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.6

      By Copernic · Posted

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 changelog: Uses electron 42.5.0 #2452 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.6.
