Finally, a Microsoft Story We Can Tell

We work quite a lot with Microsoft - our embedded team in Seattle and Redmond consists of Eric Duerr, Colm Flynn, Peter Kim, Alan Peper, Jr., and Matt Corwine. That’s a lot of brain power, and you’d imagine that we have good cause to be proud of the work that we do.

And we are. Very proud. It’s just that we can’t tell you why we’re proud. Frequently, because of the nature of the work, client confidentiality, or other reasons, we are prevented from giving the team up there the adulation they so richly deserve.

So it is a rare and special Thursday, because I have permission to show you the Microsoft Strategy: Software + Services web content. The vast majority of the video work, all of the copy, and the speeches delivered by Ray Ozzie on this site are the result of our close strategic collaboration with teams of very talented folks at Microsoft. I’d be hard pressed to say which was my favorite piece, but I have to say that the Live Mesh video remains one of my favorite clips.

If you’re at all interested in the next generation of interactive services from Microsoft (including the newly announced Azure platform), I’d highly recommend an extended visit. We’re proud to tell a very exciting story about the future of the Internet from a consumer standpoint.

And if something really struck you as amazing, why not pause to let our team know? It is so seldom that they can publicly announce “I made this!” We’d love to hear feedback.
