Amazing feedback
Wow. What a way to start blogging. I have not even had the chance to introduce myself and I have already been slashdotted. As a geek, it is a great feeling when something you write gets on the frontpage at slashdot. I now have a gif to prove that. :) Next step is to get linked by Scoble.
I have had about 20000 hits so far to the original entry and our team has got some great feedback. I like this blogging thing. :). Thanks for the great welcome. I am excited to see that people are interested in what we do at MSN. Stopdesign also has a very good article about our conversion. The comments there also have a lot of good feedback. Thanks for the feedback.
Let me introduce myself and set some expectations for the blog. My name is Venkat Narayanan and I am a SDET on the MSN Portal team. Our team works on https://www.msn.com, My MSN and some other pages. We are also responsible for some of the international portals. I am going to try and blog about once a week. Let us see how that holds up.

"Next step is to get linked by Scoble"
Heh. I don't think being scobleized is anywhere near as big as being slashdotted :-) But I may be wrong. Anyone have any hard stats? - Anonymous

I really enjoy reading this blog. It is a great example of what can happen with corporate blogging. More companies need to start embracing blogging as a way to communicate with their users.
