I’ve written about Raymond Chen and his popular blog a few times before. He’s a brilliant Microsoft employee, who writes about “serious” stuff like how to use some of Windows’ API, while also including nice stories from Microsoft’s past (plus some other stuff, which always shows how much you can learn from him).
This time I’m writing about him because there’s a podcast online where you can listen to him getting interviewed about the blog, his new book and Microsoft.
Did you know that every copy of Windows XP includes Microsoft Bob (Wikipedia definition)? I didn’t. If you have an original Windows CD and you can pound on your keyboard with your hand in a very specific way, you can get to the Microsoft Bob installation on the CD :)
I guess you have to listen to the podcast to know why I’m saying that.
UPDATE: Raymond Chen was interviewed previously on another show. It’s also very funny for Windows developers with a bit of sense of history. Here it is.
