Windows Social, didn’t complain

Ok, this is actually the first post I did about Windows. I haven’t used it as my working platform for more than 2 years, though honestly, it’s also where I started, back in Windows 95 in my school years. Even if that’s the only available version we had in 1999, it was huge then! I am now more in the FOSS community, and have been enjoying doing my stuff in Ubuntu Desktop. But what I really wanted to point out in this post is the new Windows Social, it is just like any social media but it runs real time feeds, “popping in” every second into the stream area with streams coming from different major social media out there – Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, etc. And that is a “WOW”, I admit. That’s the feature Facebook Developers haven’t really implemented in full capacity. But Facebook already rolled out their version with that feature, sort of saying “we’re on the way!”, as they had also announced in that release.

I still remember way back the upgrade of MSN’s Hotmail (or not exactly sure if older versions work smoothly on Firefox), it was always complaining that it’s not compatible with my browser. But this one, this one is really good, so Kudo’s to Windows Social team. When I found this in the Twitter’s box in popurls, posts just started popping in, sweet! Though I suppose it would do the same as on MS and IE platform. But if someone knew of a “flaw”, “fail” or “weak link”, complain about it properly to their support, and if you can bother to let me know LOL
