Politically and technically accurate (or close enough for a wide audience) -- very nice change after the rash of lame articles we've seen recently.

Today marks the start of my third week as a Product Manager with Yahoo, working on anti-spam stuff for Yahoo! Mail. I sit next to Miles Libbey.

Yahoo is fun, very purple, good coffee, plays well with others, and there's a lot of interesting stuff happening here.

It is with mixed feelings that I announce that I will be leaving Microsoft later this month, after three and a half years.

Almost everything that you would've contacted me about in the past can now be handled by the GEST team via nocmail@microsoft.com. They will escalate internally as required (just as I did) to get you the best information.

It has been a pleasure working with you on behalf of MSN Hotmail, and I'm sure we'll be in touch once I'm settled into my next job in the industry.
