I've known Scott for quite a few years, he wrote &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salon.com/tech/col/rose/1999/05/28/weblogs/index.html&quot;&gt;one&lt;/a&gt; of the first articles about weblogs, in May 1999. His weblog is edited with Radio UserLand, and that makes me proud. You can &lt;a href=&quot;http://127.0.0.1:5335/system/pages/subscriptions?url=http://blogs.salon.com/0000014/rss.xml&quot;&gt;subscribe&lt;/a&gt; to Scott's weblog with Radio's news aggregator.

Perhaps I can shed some light. Paul is a user and a journalist, not a developer. Two years ago Microsoft started making a lot of claims about .NET including some specific ship dates and features, that they have missed. Paul isn't responsible for explaining to readers the why's and wherefore's, and it's good that he is checking up on their delivery, so perhaps next time big companies like MS make grand proclamations about their dominance, they'll be taken with a few more grains of salt, and not clear the landscape of all innovation until they ship, or fail to. It's happened over and over. Paul has been around the loop enough to have seen it a few times. And he's generally a Microsoft booster, not a detractor." created="Tue, 23 Jul 2002 14:12:07 GMT"/>
		<outline text="BTW, a note to people who don't like criticism, and this is not about Microsoft, who generally takes it pretty well, all things considered. If you get some criticism, that's not a bad thing. Try to listen. On the other hand, if you're &lt;i&gt;giving&lt;/i&gt; criticism, don't make it personal unless really is. Most people try to do the best they can. Even Bill Gates probably thought they were going to ship a revolution with .NET in a quarter or two. Human beings make mistakes, all of us.

What a trip that was. It's great that Salon's archives are still there to tell the story, even if the Standard is gone, and so are many of the people in the story.
