I get the extreme pleasure of exclusively revealing a new Microsoft community website on Windows today specifically designed for IT Professionals: Talking About Windows.
Talking About Windows is a new website that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Windows 7 from the Microsoft engineers who helped build product as well as showcasing real IT Professionals talking candidly about their implementations and experiences in considering a more modern OS. This is done through a series of videos hosted within the Talking About Windows Website.
Through Talking About Windows, IT Professionals can listen as our engineers discuss why certain product decisions and feature trade-offs were made in Windows 7 from the likes of Mark Russinovich – a Technical Fellow here at Microsoft (and founder of Windows Sysinternals) - as well as Jon DeVaan, Senior Vice President for the Windows Core Operating System. A great line-up of videos with the people behind Windows 7 can be found at Talking About Windows to with more on the way!
I thought it would be neat to also showcase a special viral video for Talking About Windows I think you will enjoy (feel free to embed on your site!):
Talking About Windows – BitLocker to Go
Talking About Windows also features videos of IT Professionals offering real-world commentary on their Windows deployment and adoption experiences as well.
If you’re an IT Professional, you can also take part in conversations on the Talking About Windows website via the comments section for each video. After all – it’s about “talking about Windows” right? If you then want deeper information I recommend you visit probably one of the single best resources on the web for IT Professionals on Windows – the Springboard Series on TechNet.
In combination with Talking About Windows and the Springboard Series – IT Professionals have a great deal of resources to help them consider their options and learn more about Windows 7!
By the way Stephen Rose, who sits down the hall from me and is our community manager for IT Professionals, helps you to navigate the site when you get there.
The video for it isn't very appealing, but if Mark Russinovich is on the site, I'll look into it.
So many platforms to discuss Windows 7 :) Looks interesting though...Thanks!
Niiice. I got here from the Facebook group. So glad for facebook and Microsoft. Hey, they could make a ploy, like "MYcrosoft" or something. Just suggesting. I don't care if it's lame. On to business (or maybe customer satisfaction):
I really like what Microsoft is doing here. And that they hired you, Brandon, as the person to manage these blogs. What had always gone wrong with Microsoft products is that they released things without being stable and then offered service packs. They failed to make a stable operating system to begin with. I tried the Windows 7 beta, loved it, joined the Facebook group, and committed myself to buy one. The marketing strategy is smart, however, kind of blunt, but true. The things people look for in Apple products were the stable operating system and the applications meant to create things. Microsoft only sells office software in retail and includes a very crappy video editing software and browser with their operating system, but that actually was an advantage because the normal computer user doesn't need all those applications they'll never use. Microsoft should always provide beta operating systems if they plan to fix these problems. The blogspot is also a good idea because that's what the Apple people do. They look at blogs and find things users don't like about their system and fix them before the next OS release. I hope this will get to Microsoft so they know what my whiney "friends" on the Mac side are saying about them. Basically, Mac people want way more with their operating system, remember that.
Have only installed today but am already impressed with the new look system, very nice to use so far.
