Shameless Self Publicist Makes Useful Technology List

  • Article

Congratulations to Blake Handler (yes, that's his real name) for the most shameless self-publicity move ever in the history of blogs!

Blake has been the victim of a regularly changing URL for his MSN Spaces (now Windows Live Spaces) Blog. Which has made it difficult for his readers to remain in touch. Frankly that's a shame, because Blake's blog houses some jolly useful stuff.

So what did Blake do? He wrote out to everyone he's ever been in contact with in the blogosphere and begged (Blake's word, not mine!) them to add a link to his new blog location.

And it worked! Here's my link to Blake's extraordinarily long post of the Ultimate List of Free Windows Software from Microsoft.

Now you know what to do on that annoying day that sits between Thursday and the weekend: download over 150 free things from Microsoft, all with the compliments of Blake's list. Good work Blake!
