Comment on How Microsoft Bob ended up being a part of every copy of Windows XP

Comments

I rather like what Microsoft has been doing lately with their blogging. It isn't the super stuffy "we are always right and have always been flawless", but is actually worth reading and gives some decent insights.

Raymond Chen (the author of this article), Larry Osterman and others have been writing great historical MS stuff for years. There's lots of great stuff if you've got the time to read it.

I could quite happily purge the majority of my rss feeds and not miss them, but I wouldn't remove 'The Old New Thing' (Raymond Chen's blog) - it's got great anecdotes, insight into MS, and some very good technical content.
