Microsoft codenames gone wild

I’ve mentioned before that I keep a running list of Microsoft codenames; it’s one of my favorite home-grown reference tools. That list is now available to you in the form of a handy PDF.

The March edition of the “All About Microsoft” CodeTracker is available for download. The best part? It’s free. This month’s update includes a bunch of new Microsoft Research codenames, plus a few other new entries added for good measure.

If you’re a Microsoft customer, partner, analyst, competitor (or even employee), you might find it useful.

And while I’m making public-service announcements, if you’d like to get posts from “All About Microsoft” in e-mail form (hourly, daily or weekly), you can subscribe here.

I still like the part where you explained, in the video, where they got the names from. Any more of those you will add on the .pdf, soon?... (Read the rest)
