Deja vu: 5 ways Microsoft stores differ from Apple stores
2009-10-23 01:04:00 Check out this video. If you've ever been to an Apple Store, this is about the most severe case of deja vu you'll ever have.Microsoft opened its first retail store today in Scottsdale, Ariz., and, well, to me it's an Apple Store. It looks like an Apple Store. The Geniuses are called Gurus. Microsoft even hired Apple executives to help launch the concept.Of course there are some differences:1. After customers talk to employees for more than a few minutes at a time, they turn blue and need to be rebooted.2. Everything at the Microsoft store comes in 6 different editions. So if you need a USB cable, there's the USB cable home premium, business, platinum limited, etc.3. Whenever Gurus...
Your Status Will Now Be Binged: Microsoft to Tie Up With Facebook and Twitt
2009-10-21 20:14:00 350 million users and billions of real time updates, that’s what Microsoft is looking to tap into through deals with Facebook and Twitter. According to All Things Digital, Microsoft will announce separate nonexclusive deals today with both Facebook and Twitter to integrate their real-time feed of status updates into the Bing search service. ATD fittingly called this a one-two punch. Who took this Punch? Google of course. While Big G has been in talks with both the social media powerhouses for a similar deal, Microsoft has cleverly leveraged on pre-existing relationships to get it first. Microsoft as almost everyone knows was an early investor in Facebook (probably a move just to keep Google off ..which is no doubt paying off now) and has also shared commercial relations with Twitter before (remember the first speculation of monetization – Exectweets). Bing had earlier bean indexing Twitter to some extent in its search results. It was nowhere near the real time indexing ...

Microsoft Windows 7 Release Date is the 22nd of October 2009
2009-09-20 20:47:00 Finally, a new version of Windows to extend the already lengthy life of a tired platform. I am a big proponent of evolution, but Microsoft has again punted with a micro-evolutionary move from the (relatively) solid Windows XP operating system. Microsoft Vista was more like a mutated post-apocalyptic mistake that may seem to have been revolutionary by some, but over reaching and stagnant by most. How many organization do you know that migrated to Vista? I would guess you could not name many – if any. Looking back over the progression of the Windows platform, Windows 2000 was really a revolution – an honest break from the old 16-bit DOS platform. Windows XP was a really good evolutionary step after 2000 – it certainly did not have the DNA makeup that allows it to be seen as a revolution from 2000. However, it did set the stage – and the expectations for a new and ground breaking new version of Windows – that became Vista. Such sadness. Not to say ...

Microsoft Launches OneApp For Non-Smartphones. Will This Excite App Develop
2009-08-26 06:26:00 The blogosphere may have been discussing iPhones and Blackberries all the time, but most parts of the world, including ours, are those where it is the feature phones – the ‘not so smart’ ones that rule the roost. So, while iPhone app developers can be called an industry by itself in the west, here basically it does not matter. It is on that note that the new launch from Microsoft seems pretty exciting. The new application, called OneApp is one light 150 kb application that needs to be installed on the feature phones to run all sorts of mobile apps like Facebook, Twitter, Windows Live Messenger, Reader and a lot of games and news apps.

The application which is currently being launched in South Africa will soon be made available in India and the rest of the emerging market, where the mobile phone growth has been prolific.
