Microsoft blogs without RSS: surprised?
Robert Scoble is having a go at his own people now: Microsoft.
Microsoft opens another cool but lame site … Lame cause it doesn’t have an RSS feed. … When will Microsoft’s marketing departments get the memo? EVERY site MUST have RSS from now on. Got it?
They’ll probably “get it” at the same time as Microsoft software application development departments will standardise their software (even in the same suite) so that common functions work across all software.
Or, they’ll “get it” at the same time as Microsoft releases a decent, modern, capable operating system.
Or, they’ll “get it” when they use, rather than trash or propietarise, open standards in their products.
Getting the message? Don’t expect standardisation from Microsoft. It ain’t never gonna happen.

heh. That’s a very Mac-Zealot way of saying it
Of course you can expect standardisation from MS. As soon as they think it’s profitable to do so.

Of course. I am one
Then again, Apple don’t stick to standards.
Look at the iPod vs the iPod mini – one has the headphone jack in the middle, the other on the right – what’s that all about?
