Chris: I totally disagree that Microsoft markets to edge’ers. What exactly have we done in the past four years for edge cases (while they were still edge cases)?

I think just having a real website these days makes you an edge case.. or just blogging..
by the way check out http://www.leathersaloon.com
We are living on the edge of new technology every day by still utilizing the computer. Let's keep it going for the future generations. We will all be looked at as "pioneers of blog" someday.

You *are* an edge case Robert but don't worry, we *all* are. We just don't realize it.

I currently subscribe to hundreds of feeds but if things pan out they way I expect they will I'll soon subscribe to none.... yet sample thousands.

I expect the Feed Aggregator to go the way of the dodo, to be replaced by the Feed Grazer. Its a completely different model and it will be enabled by OPML directories and Reading Lists. When the World is an Outline we don't have to wed ourselves to a tiny number of information flows (eg. 400) - instead we can graze everything.

And we'll all be edge cases :)

If anyone can think for themselves, why are you whinging and cryingabout it?

Someone doth protest too much.

They dropped WiMP:Mac, because it was a pile of crap, a SHAMEFUL pile of crap that the WM team just as shamefully let the MacBU take heat for.

Amazing how Robert never got angry about that, especially since it would have been legitimate.

Anyway, it sucked. The WM team was about as likely to make WiMP:Mac as feature complete as say QuickTime on Windows is, as they were to make their server run on Linux and provide the source code for free under a BSD license.

So now, you've lost no real features, and it runs in a player that doesn't blow chunks. It's a win-win.

We need less disdain of "most people."

We all need a lot more edge case in our lives, as compared to the boredom and mediocrity that consume most people's lives...

Goebbels: you shouldn't listen to anyone. Including me. Unless you want to.

Still waiting to hear why we should listen to you, Scoble?

#25, when you have people who try to make it so by repeatedly telling you that something is the way they say it is, you have a small window of opportunity in which things really do have to become the way you say they are. If they do, you end up looking smart. If you don't, people catch on, you become irrelevant, and it's difficult to regain traction in future.

There are probably SOME edge cases that become mainstream, but I'd bet that the vast majority remain edge cases, gradually reduce in frequency, or just disappear altogether.

I've still yet to work out what scoble actually does?

Can anyone give me a clue as im confused to how someone who has done nothing can have such a whopping ego?

I'm not trying to be offensive but i read this blog every day among many other blogs and it seems to be 90% waffle and name dropping, why do people care about your opinions on technology what have you done to justify that status?

Sorry but I'm interested in 'technology' not Robert Scoble

Hey Mr. Edge, Office 12 becomes Office 2007 (yah forgot to leak that one, unlike Vienna), good moving forward, but creates a bad marketing perception that it be nothing to worry about for this whole year. ;)

Wait. Can't we all just get along? I remember the Commodore vs the Atari's... What is this... Be respectful to your fellow blogger's, if you don't like it, don't read it or post on it... That simple.
Keep up the Edge work Dude

Scoble's ego grows by the day...

Speaking of edge cases, still no answer as to why Microsoft dropped Windows Media Player for the Mac.

Hey partner, there's much less shame in being an edge case than in being part of the heap of medocrity at the center.

Thanks LaBomba, I knew you'd hate it. In fact, when I was doing the redesign, every pixel, every line of CSS, every bit of text was driven by one deep, burning need:

To make you hate it.

I have achieved my dream.

"Carol Grojean VAVA VOOOM!!!! Ya, lucky guy Scoble."

Way to reduce her years of hard work down to her tits buddy. I'm sure your appreciation of her looks far outweighs anything she is accomplishing at Microsoft.

re: Todays edge case is also tomorrows mainstream user.

Todays edge case is also tomorrows nutjob who bet on a bad idea. Just because you are all alone on the ski trail doesn't mean you are a trailblazer, you could just be lost.

How did I miss this term all my life? I searched Google for edge case and I got this: http://virology-online.com/... -- Scoble, I think that's what they meant. Genuine Leather.

Hi, Robert. Likely, you were offended by somebody calling you an "edge case" because your convicted monopolist employer followed - and continues - a pattern of calling its competitors essentially the same thing as means to discredit them.

You know, being at the fringe isn't really bad - especially if you really believe in the good your cause can do.

I don't find RSS particularly useful as a tool, but I can see how Microsoft does for its own sinister purposes.
