I posted this article about myself because I'm excited that Microsoft is featuring me and one of my products. In the past I've been more of the programmer in the background and my business partner took care of the networking for us. Now I'm trying to make connections on my own and being part of something like this is a nice boost to my morale.
- BrandonWatson 17y agoIt was great to have discovered Yappler and MichaelApproved on HackerNews and I look forward to meeting more .NET devs here. I came back into MSFT to bring some of the startup mojo to our marketing and product development in developer tools, and we're definitely making forward progress. If there are other folks on HN doing cool stuff with .NET, please let me know about you. I want to be your conduit into MSFT. Let me know how I can help you. As someone who ran a company that was a Vista launch partner, I know what a total nightmare it is to navigate MSFT. Let me help you. Oh yeah, and definitely go check out yappler.com. :)
- teej 17y agoI imagine it's thrilling to be featured by Microsoft in this way, so it seems like a big win. But your comments on Visual Studio were soaked in a Microsoft reality distortion field, and it was off-putting to me.
- raheemm 17y agoYou have a typo on your first link to dotnetstories. (The i is missing leading to dotnetstores.com)
- MichaelApproved 17y agoI fixed the title and found a plugin that will help me fix the URL. I'll poke around with it later today.
