News] [Rival] Microsoft Can't Handle the Web

Hash: SHA1

Microsoft is not a web company

,----[ Quote ]
| I want to talk about Microsoft's web strategy. But Microsoft is a huge 
| company, with a lot of parallel activities in this space, and there are so 
| many angles from which you can approach the subject. So I've decided to focus 
| on a single, instructive example: the front page of Microsoft.com.   
| 
| Disclaimer: this is a cheap shot. I know it is. A single HTML page does not 
| embody the entirety of Microsoft's strategic direction and corporate culture. 
| I'm also subjecting it to rigorous scrutiny of the kind few web pages get. 
| Nevertheless, Microsoft.com is one of the most popular destinations on the 
| Internet and they are trying to make a name for themselves in the web space 
| and they do have a gigantic budget which they could expend on their front 
| page.      
| 
| Here's where my journey began, and what started my investigation that led to 
| this post. This is the front page of Microsoft.com, rendered in Firefox 
| (v3.0.5, Windows XP). This and all subsequent screenshots are cropped; click 
| for the full capture.
