This group on Facebook has exploded with 247 current members in only a few weeks! I saw that Hugh was asking if this was a good number. I definitely think so, as I’m sure it’s going to grow some more yet!

I’ve had a love/hate relationship with “The Blue Monster” which I think is good because at least it provokes a strong reaction. It has made people have a different set of conversations about Microsoft and it certainly has touched a chord with many people. Make of it what you will! That is why people like it as they feel they own it somehow…I suppose? For me anything that talks to the Social Corporate Responsibility side of an organisation gets lots of brownie points with me but I can also see that people might see it as a slightly arrogant view. However, it’s not really a Microsoft Corp message, it’s a grassroots message. My question is though, will it just always be a “marketing” message or will it effect real change?

So if you want to have some interesting discussions about Microsoft then get onboard!
