Another Pro Microsoft user or an online comedian? – You decide.
,----[ Quote ]
| Normally this would not be article worthy, most of the pro-MS comments on
| Twitter I read seem to come from either employees of or people who make money
| from Microsoft products. Jschuchart is a little different though. He’s
| another one who I believe thinks they are a bit of a joker. As we have seen
| countless times before when one challenges a Microsoft viewpoint which cannot
| be answered, one is usually met with either abuse, refusal to answer or a
| joke of some description. Jschuchart has IMO comited two of these (a refusal
| to answer and a joke) but he goes one step further.

| Over on Microsoft Watch Ive been having discussions about the MS faithful,
| heres another example of a questionable poster that I found recently. I have
| many on my books, some of which I have amassed a considerable of information
| and supporting evidence on. This chap is one of the obvious ones, who hasnt
| considered even the most basic rule, if you are going to link to your site
| make sure it doesnt seem to conflict with what you post! Since hes not
| really of interest, I thought Id give you all a quick article on him.
|
| [...]
|
| And after 5 seconds of scanning his site, we can leave this article here.
| The personal description of him says:
|
| I’m Hemanth, from Kerala,India. I’m a software engineer by profession (
| Advanced Windows Installer or MSI technologies) and a webmaster of a number
| of websites.
|
| I’m a Microsoft’s Most Valuable Professional (MVP) awardee in 2007 & 2008,
| for my contributions in the computer end-user support forums and newsgroups.

Optionetics - A mystery solved.
,----[ Quote ]
| Now it appears we have an answer, as this comment was left by the real
| company Optionetics:
|
| Hi all,
|
| Thanks for posting this to the blog. I’m actually with Optionetics, which has
| done investor education for 15 years.
|
| We NEVER do stock tips and investment advice like @optionetics has done.
| That’s illegal. We only provide education and tools to teach people how to
| increase trading profit and protect downside risk.
|
| We’re currently talking with Twitter so we can take back our company name
| from this impersonator. Thanks for asking the important questions!
|
| We’re just diving into Twitter now as a company. You can follow me at
| @AKatOptionetics, or http://twitter.com/AKatOptionetics
|
| Aaron
|
| So it appears our Microsoft promoter Optionetics is not all they seem. I
| hope this matter gets resolved.
