Lots of news tonight around Scoble leaving Microsoft. Sort of confusing at this point because Scoble himself hasn’t posted in detail about his decision to leave. Winer has the best write-up I’ve found. Scoble doesn’t seem to think it’s that big of deal since Microsoft has 3000 other bloggers. I tend to think it is a big deal when most people can’t name another Microsoft blogger other than Scoble.
I like the fact that Scoble decided to write his blog on hosted WordPress and not MSDN blogs or MSN Spaces. He never seemed to fit the typical Microsoft stereotype and that’s why I found his blog interesting. Here’s hoping he stays interesting and finds much success at Podtech.
