Oh boy, open up Neowin. They have outdone themselves at whoring out. Sure it was always MS focused, but now it's just like an official press relations site at Microsoft.com

Current headlines:

"Microsoft updates financial app"
"Microsoft adds spelling improvements to Bing search"
"Colorful Microsoft infographic shows company's divisions":

"A new infographic published by Microsoft shows the extent of the company's various divisions and how they all link with each other as a way to illustrate the various careers at Microsoft."

-----

Why isn't that site part of the Microsoft subdomain system already? neowin.microsoft.com sounds actually quite nice.

It is the fanboy central. The users are all fanboys who like all nonsense MSFT produces.

No offense, but why does it matter? Besides, it keeps us relevant as a viable alternative for discussion and help ;).

I've seen many good "net communities" go that way
best cure is to avoid them when such thing happen
and find alternative :)
