Microsoft CTO Starts Blogging
By the Betanews Staff | Published November 16, 2005, 1:20 PM
Microsoft's new Chief Technology Officer Ray Ozzie, who formerly ran Groove and has been tapped to head up Redmond's Web services strategy, has started blogging. He promises not to simply plug Microsoft products, but instead "reply and converse with you in a manner that scales."
Ozzie admits that, "At times there will be controversies I just can't or won't engage in," but says, "I'm involved in many interesting and varied issues here that have potentially broad impact, so there's probably a lot more I'll want to converse about." What is Ozzies's blog software of choice? MSN Spaces, of course. "I figured that if it works so well for 25 million other bloggers, it might even work for me," he writes.
If Ozzie is so interested in conversing with us, why is it that he's disabled comments? His blog is a one-way street: all Ozzie, nothing for us!

Must've been taken a lot of dough to make someone endure that, the expected non-compete agreements, etc... esp. for someone so late in an accomplished & free-wheeling career...
And speaking of MSN Spaces-- badly in need of a size & features upgrade/conversion....

Besides, it's not like your blog has cool movies about Microsoft employees going through the roof of their building via ejection seat... (http://cityofrain.com)
Hopefully the dude blogs some cool stuff, and doesn't get a sock in his yapper. It'd be interesting to hear what a CTO at that level actually deals with.
