So? Motivation matters and it shows in his content.
I can trust that someone who profits directly from the Microsoft ecosystem will tell me to use Microsoft products.
This article is really two parts.
1) Why he is switching away from DropBox. Fair points, but none of it is new information that we haven't seen posted here 20 times the week the security vulnerability occurred.
2) Why he is switching to Live Mesh. This is an advertisement. It is not informative, it does not compare other syncing products, it does not add anything beyond the Live Mesh marketing information.
It isn't even a review of Live Mesh
- JonoW 15y agoAt least you're arguing the points of the article :) I haven't used either product so I don't have an opinion on whether he's talking BS or not...
- parfe 15y agoI guess? It was a waste of my time, but you seem to be defending ad copy because pointing out the guy is a microsoft evangelist is somehow not useful information http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott in fact, if you read his posting history I think who he is severely tarnishes anything he writes.
- JonoW 15y agoI'm def not saying people shouldn't point it out, I just think people shouldn't base their entire opinion on the fact that he's an MS evangelist.
