From "Microsoft Watch" (newsletter):

"More and more Microsofties (past and present) are setting up Weblogs. Some are chronicling the debates inside Microsoft and the rest of the software industry. Others completely shy away from any mentions of their employer.

We've been building out our collection of Microsoft blogger bookmarks. Not too surprisingly, many of these folks are connected to Microsoft's developer/Web services divisions.

Here are a few of our favorites:

Joshua Allen's Better Living Through Software

(Allen's site includes a list of other Microsoft bloggers)

Simple Geek: Chris Anderson's Blog

Microsoft Web Services Kingpin Don Box

New Microsoft Hire Peter Drayton

Dare "Carnage4Life" Obasanjo"

No commentary on the rest of the article, but it is interesting to see how much blogging is in the mainstream (more reason I'm frustrated at my complete ignorance of this before december...)
