I don’t have a lot of really technical content on this blog as of yet and have a whopping 2 subscribers according to feed burner. In the blogsphere, I am nobody. Now I do watch my stats and I have found it interesting that someone from Microsoft has been reading this blog. I’m a decent software developer, but I’m not at the level of a Microsoft developer (yet). I suspect it has to do with the fact that I have ranted slightly at Microsoft’s actions lately. I’m not getting a hit here or there. I’m talking about 11:30 P.M. on a Friday night and going through every page and every category. It doesn’t look like a bot, those usually show up in my stats in a sequential manner.

So I’m curious as to why someone at Microsoft would be checking out my blog. Since I’m obviously not some genius developer with tons of information to share, my only guess is that either someone on the night shift up there likes surfing through random and boring sludge like my blog. Another scenario could be someone working overtime for the legal department is trying to find anything picturing Microsoft in a bad light and they hit either my post about disliking Vista, or my post disagreeing with Microsoft’s tactics in dealing with a developer that increases the value in their product(s).
