Two days before,Microsoft’s upcoming Windows Phone 7 ads featuring HTC Mondrian with AT&T leaked around the Internet. The video was first uploaded by a company which made music for that ad in Vimeo. WMPoweruser.com first broke the story to Internet. From there on the videos spread like wildfire. Top technology blog sites like Engadget, TechCrunch, Cnet, Neowin, etc wrote on it. The videos had about 200,000 views each and generally had positive reviews. Now YouTube has removed those videos claiming copyrights issue from Microsoft Corporation. So this move obviously confirms that ads were real. People who haven't seen the ads still can view it in hundreds of YouTube account and some sites like Engadget that hosts the ads on their own server.

Microsoft: 0, Google: 23
Finally someone have done this.I thought of doing the same comparison.I think Google should be stopped from acquiring start-ups.They are announcing one each week.If Google makes it in Consumer space,IBM does it in Enterprise space.IBM is so serious about other niche solution providers,adding them to its stack.What do you think of this matter?Microsoft has made zero acquisition.I think Microsoft’s strategy is to partner with other companies.They have partnered with
- Wordpress
- Yahoo,etc

Blogging in 2010= Facebook+Twitter+Foursquare???
When one of my friend questioned me about status of my blog today,I was puzzled and confused…Whether to continue blogging or not..Anyway I've already stopped blogging frequently for past few months..So when I just started thinking about where I spend time in Internet which was Blogging most of the time a year before ! !
First thing I came to know that i’m using social networks more than ever..How much time?? About 2 hrs in a normal internet session(my session lasts for about 7 hrs).Thats an impressive 30%.What made me to spend more time in these networks more than ever?
1)People are moving away from reading and creating Blogs.Which obviously questions me should i share my thought through Blogs??(Secret:My Blog traffic has slipped many % over months..Oh…No..Its not me..)
2)Many MNC’s like Microsoft,Google,Nokia,Dell have started using these as medium through which they communicate with people.
3)People need Info Short & Sweet (Thanks to twitter)
4)People expect their mates to check and comment their Favourite links in a single wall.(Thanks to Facebook)
Though all these services wont support content creation rather promote content consumption.Whats your view on Blogging in this Social Networking Era??In the mean time I’m on all these services.Follow me for latest Tech Trends…
