Judge the Made in Express software contest

by on August 16, 2006

I’ve been pretty harsh on Microsoft lately. Hey, that’s normal, I guess, after you leave a job. Sort of a “jump on the man” impulse. Anyway, there are some killer things happening at Microsoft. Catching my eye is the hobbyist renaissance that’s happening there.

Another is the Made in Express Contest. I agreed to be a judge for free cause I believe in this kind of contest which encourages normal people to try their hand at software development. Anyway, like American Idol there’s an audience part to the judging and that’s open now.

    Did you actually participate in the judging eventually?

  • LayZ: I was pretty harsh on Microsoft before I worked there. I told Bill Gates to split the company up. I was pretty harsh on them when I was there. Regularly wrote Bill Gates and told him what I thought of how he should run the company. And I'm pretty harsh now.

    By the way, there's good and bad's to every job. Even one of the best in the industry. Which is what I had at Channel 9.

    It's only normal ti be harsh on your former employer if you didn't like being there. This says alot about your tenure at MS.
