AUSTRALIAN cricketer Phillip Hughes died today after succumbing to injuries he suffered when struck by a bouncer at the SCG on Tuesday. That's really terrible! ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Has Microsoft bought a share of CodeProject? All the Daily News are Microsoft this, Microsoft that! .NET this, .NET that! ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)

While it would not surprise me if MS did have a stake in CP it is Microsoft CENTRIC with some weird stuff thrown in so you can expect a fairly high level of MS content.

Well, in my company internet is locked except for a few util site. I was able to make CP unlocked last month because a HUGE part of MSDN search results links to CP articles or forums, so it would make sense.
Also, it would be plainly dumb if a community as big as CP ignores the biggest software house that produces compilers and IDEs. VisualStudio and other MS technologies are widely used, and Windows is still the default platform for a lot of services. Being the size that it is MS produces heavy quantities of news every day, and the general Internet user isn't interested in news involving SW development.

Wow! Never used MSDN search before, but checked it and MY article came first on the list! I may abandon Google...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

StackOverflow took 99% of the result and my article is the only one from CodeProject!  ! That's right no more google'n else forth!

By using MSDN I came to the conclusion that if you are searching something Windows related MSDN search is actually more useful and accurate than many generic search engines.
If only the .NET documentation was well crafted as the Win32 one...

Wow  , just checked it. This is a great surprise for me. However I don't think MS has stake in CP. CP is more MS Tech oriented just like the serverside.com which is more java oriented.

«If you search in Google for 'no-one ever got fired for buying IBM:' the top-hit is the Wikipedia article on 'Fear, uncertainty and doubt'» What does that tell you about sanity in these times?

CodeProject has always been and, I believe, was always intended to be a Microsoft-oriented site. Rumor has it that several of the early Microsoft top management folks slept with Bob before they discovered pretty girls. Once they were billionaires they had more options, of course. Other technologies are welcome, but we don't see them very often.

Bad news, Chris; when he's drunk, Bob talks, and he's a cheap date. All those times you've been binging with the rodents in the server vault, Bob's been skipping over to Bullhead City for a little jet ski action and cheap beer. Like I said, he talks... I don't, of course, but I take notes...

How much programming is done for Microsoft operating systems*, and how much for other systems**?
* By people who are willing to take part in something like CP.
** By people who are willing to step away from their mutual back-slapping/bitch-slapping societies and take part in something like CP.

You're lucky, I don't have neither hearts nor kegs. A life without love and alcohol (or at least one of the two) is an empty life
