Scoble is a Vista Product Manager?

Just heard this on TWiT -- about 42 minutes in. Is that right?

Must you always append your posts with this? 

Usually you would say this when someone else goes "I love you!" first.

Leo Laporte.

I thought just that would explain everything...

My RSS reader's item list pane is set to a rather narrow width, so at first I read your title as "Scoble is a Vista Product".

So, Scoble, how's that Aero-Glass look working for you?

Just a thought - 'Twit' in many UK English speaking countries means a mild expletive to describe someone who has done something rather silly or stupid. The term 'prize twit' is saved for the really twitish.

Heh. I think Associated Press called me a "key developer" last week. The fun!

If only it were true.

I get so much credit for stuff that I didn't do.

Wow I hadn't noticed 8-)

C'mon now Robert, you are Steve Ballmers successor.  You always take credit for everything.  It comes with the job.  In all seriousness my friend, you do have celebrity status.  Very few bloggers and tech people do not know the name "Robert Scoble"

Last week I was taking with a tech-savvy co-worker who's into blogs and blogging.  I said something about something being mentioned "on Scoble's blog."

She said, "Who?"

"Robert Scoble's blog."  I was sure she just hadn't heard me.

"Who's Robert Scoble?" she asked.

I was nonplussed.  It was as if I had made mention of Angelina Jolie's pregnancy and gotten a reply of, "Angelina who?"

Charles, if I ever run the company something will be very very wrong.

You undersell yourself.

Only today you were called the "Modern Day Benjamin Franklin".  Yes, as in, one of the blokes who founded the United States!

Bill: "Hey, Scoble don't you think a 15 billion dollar project on RSS advancements is a little excessive?"

Scoble: "Trust me Bill, you can never have enough RSS!"

Bill: "How does Trump do it again? Oh yeah...............
....YAH FIRED!!."

Scoble: "Oh, i'm gonna blog about this! I'm gonna tell the world!"

Bill: "What blog? I own the internet. You have no blog. Not no more."

Scoble: *sobs* Oh, the humanity! [C]
