Microsoft bloggers with a sense of humour
I subscribe to lots of blogs written by Microsoft bloggers, and my favourites are from those who aren’t afraid to poke a little fun at themselves and their employer. Here’s a post from The Sean Blog making fun of the fact that when you right click a removable drive in Windows Vista, the kind “Safely remove” and the destructive “Format” commands are 1/8 inch apart.

These are the bloggers that are helping Microsoft to gain more of a people-friendly reputation, rather than the monopolistic, evil empire that we all love to hate. If you’re a Microsoft blogger, please don’t just regurgitate press-releases and sales pitches – have the guts and sense of humour to poke a bit of fun at yourself sometimes. We’ll like you more for it.
