Microsoft Launches Windows 7 Blog


Windows learns a thing or two from the world of blogging


As part of Microsoft’s efforts to promote its Windows projects, the Windows team is launching a new initiative -- a blog to promote its new upcoming Windows 7 operating system. The new blog is titled Engineering Windows 7 and the first post went online August 14 at about 5 PM. The blog is going to provide exclusive insight from Microsoft's development team about the progress of the OS.

The first blog, unsurprisingly, comes from Windows senior vice presidents Jon DeVaan and Steven Sinofsky. The pair has already stated that official engineering details will not be fully discussed until October 27 at the Professional Developers' Conference in Los Angeles. However, they hope to drop a few hints in the blog, along with getting feedback from what people hope to see with Windows 7.

Re: Microsoft Launches Windows 7 Blog

That's a great marketing move by MS to add a Windows 7 blog. After the disaster called Vista, they are making their customers a party to the development of the OS therefore insuring its success. Good job MS.
