Windows 7 Microsoft sure learnt a lot from Windows Vista not just in terms of what works best for users but all the other aspects of launching a successful product.

With Windows 7 Microsoft is going an extra mile to make sure no stone is left unturned for the product to be widely used and accepted.

Microsoft is transparent and more social with all the initiatives it is taking around Windows 7. Multiple blogs have been launched talking about windows; channels have been announced on Youtube discussing the better functionalities of Windows 7, Windows 7 Giveaways, Windows 7 Expert advice, etc.. This time unlike Windows Vista, the software giant is in no mood to take any chances.

TalkingAboutWindows.com is one such site where the real people behind Windows 7 invite visitors to get involved in discussions, ask questions or share their experiences or opinions on Windows 7.

So who’s involved you ask? Following are few of the known names behind the software..

Jon Devaan, Microsoft Sr VP Windows Core Operating System
Mark Russinovich, Microsoft, Technical Fellow
Sharif Farag, Microsoft, Senior Lead Program Manager
Gabriel Aul, Microsoft, Director of Program Management

Another good resource is Talking About Windows on Youtube. This channel showcases two 10-year-olds talking about Windows 7 and other IT related stuff.

Few other resources for Windows 7:

Official Windows 7 site [link]
Windows 7 Team Blog [link]
Windows 7 for Developers [link]
TalkingAboutWindows – YouTube [link]
Engineering Windows 7 – [link]

With so many domains and sites being launched around Windows, I am surprised Microsoft didn’t contact me for one of the domains I own "WindowsStuff.com". I won’t charge too much, just a million dollars and lifetime free supply of Microsoft softwares + beta tester for all Microsoft softwares. Thats not too much to ask, is it?
