You’ve Got Questions? Try Microsoft Answers.

Microsoft Answers is a site we’ve launched to provide a more friendly UI for getting answers to Windows Vista questions. 

You will also see that there’s a forum moderated by the Microsoft Answers Team (employees and MVPs), for those queries that seem to stymie the search engine.

Interestingly, the site is built around the idea of a social network.  By logging in with your Windows Live ID, you can Follow other individual’s activities.  Why would you do this?  Well, let’s say they ask a really good question that you’re curious of the answer to.  Or, perhaps you’ve seen their profile and think they your IT infrastructures and interests are similar.  It’s an interesting concept, at the least.

Both are efforts to break through the barriers that may be preventing customers from deploying Windows Vista or getting past nagging issues.  And as always, don’t hesitate to contact your account team or services Partner for help!
