Microsoft's 'photo op' moment at open-source conference?

| Just when I think Matt's bias against Microsoft can't become any more
| evident, he has the audacity to blog on an event * HE DIDN'T EVEN ATTEND *.
| Congratulations on showing more and more why your opinions and blogs are
| worthless.
|
| Cnet, are you going to continue to have this guy represent you (of course,
| officially that's not the case)? Please, get some editorial standards in
| place, and remove him. He doesn't deserve the spot of recognization that's
| being given to him.

| John, for some reason the system seems to have neglected to register the last
| comment I made. Basically, I just noted that you're a blogger for Microsoft
| (unless it's a different John West), working in its SharePoint group. So
| perhaps your bias is an equal and opposing force to mine?
|
| I think you missed the point of this post, and you've missed the point of my
| posts for the past 4-5 years. I'm not a Microsoft hater. I genuinely and
| generally like its technology - it's the business practices that I often
| criticize. I even like your SharePoint quite a bit, despite competing with
| it. As a product, it's great. As a way to lock customers into its existing
| platforms, it's not so great.
|
| Microsoft will need to open up in order to compete on the web. It's not a
| critique - it's just required.

| Backhanded compliments are always transparent. If you want your blog to
| have any credibility at all, you might want to consider putting some
| facts in with your opinion. You might also consider putting more of
| your own words in a blog post. You seem to have put the other blog'sw
| ords in your own little wrapper -- hoping to get credit for the ideas.
