Looks like all of our favorite MS bloggers are moving
31 March 05 07:44 PM | rodtrent | with no comments

If you're watching the MS blogs that normally come from MSDN, it looks like MS has made an organizational change on the web blogs.  They are now all being relocated to http://blogs.technet.com

MS goes through at least 10 re-orgs per year internally (like any other company), so it's no surprise to me that the web blogs are also being moved around.  If you have a favorite MS web blog, make sure you are keeping track so you can continue to receive your favorite MS blogger posts.

Turning on a dime
31 March 05 08:39 AM | rodtrent | with no comments

I'm sure you've noticed all of the neat RSS feeds coming out of the Microsoft camp recently.  Is RSS the next Internet battle?  The first battle was the browser (MS won), then it was Internet and Desktop Search (MS is still fighting this one), and now it seems to be providing RSS feeds for anything and everything.

Can Microsoft do it?  Most likely.  But, it really bugs me how most of the Microsoft "feeds" include URLs that are 2 miles long.  Sounds to me like a re-do of everything in the Microsoft domain is in order.
