Perhaps you've heard of the strange phenomenon known as "Rick Roll'd." Described by Urban Dictionary as tricking someone to click a link that takes you to Rick astley's 'Never gonna give you up' music video. I haven't been victimized yet, but I suspect it's coming soon.
I am of the mind that the people behind this effort are actually working for Rick astley and trying to help him make a comeback by reminding all of us of this song, which the public thankfully forgot…until about 3 weeks ago.
Here's a fun little Flash cartoon about how it works. Watching this is not considered getting Rick Roll'd, since I'm not tricking you.

Caleb Jenkins has left Microsoft. This morning on his blog, he announced his departure:
Yesterday, Jan 5th 2007, was my last day at Microsoft. The email that my manager sent out probably says it best:
“Please join me in saying goodbye to Caleb Jenkins whose last day with Microsoft is today Friday, January 5th. I know we will all miss Caleb’s passion and enthusiasm for developers and our evangelism business. Please join me in thanking him for his contributions to our team and in wishing him the very best in his future endeavors!”
First, let me say what an honor and privilege that it has been to work and serve with so many of you as the South Central Microsoft DE for the last year and a half. Second, what’s next for Caleb? I’m not exactly sure what an ex-Microsoft employee like me is going to do. I’m sure that I will still be involved in the community, still enjoy spending time with my family, and probably spend less time on the road. I’m pretty much keeping my option open. There are several options that are open to me, none that I am able to talk about… yet.
I wanted to take a minute and address some of the different community projects and areas that I was working on to make sure that those continue to move forward without a hitch.
Thank you – and I’m looking forward to seeing all of you again in the future!
We wish Caleb the very best in the future and know that he will be sorely missed at Microsoft. Caleb is the kind of person that has an intoxicating personality and adds value to every team he joins. Good luck Caleb. Maybe you can get that Macbook Pro you've had your eye on now.
