Tallkenhi! I am in a completely unrelated discussion but it would be useful to find out the document where Microsoft outlines how to win people's attention's when commenting in blog. basically, I want the FUD tactics Microsoft's documents described. If anyone has better search terms for me to Google them, I would appreciate. Thank you.Mar 06 15:29
