Comments on: Microsoft Updates Windows Live Search for Mobile http://www.phonenews.com/microsoft-updates-windows-live-search-for-mobile-3466/ Providing complete coverage of the wireless industry, cell phone news, and future 4G technologies. Sun, 22 Nov 2009 04:30:31 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Christopher Price http://www.phonenews.com/microsoft-updates-windows-live-search-for-mobile-3466/comment-page-1/#comment-13770 Christopher Price Wed, 21 May 2008 19:54:33 +0000 http://www.phonenews.com/?p=3466#comment-13770 It's not being bent out of shape. Someone came here (you) to "just point out"... as in, make a complaint. I addressed the complaint, and let you know how to avoid the need to make a complaint in the future. Now, others that read this (and hopefully you) will be more motivated to send in a news tip next time. Educating readers on how to switch from being complainers into supporters is a great thing... I hope you learned from this as much as I had the pleasure of explaining the process to you. It’s not being bent out of shape. Someone came here (you) to “just point out”… as in, make a complaint.

If you want news to appear here faster, you have to send us news tips people... it's that simple. I can't be any more clear about it. This isn’t chirping, and it isn’t idle bickering.

Lets follow these posts. Chad posted the first post...To me it looks like a joke like, "wow chris, you are on top of everything, I finally beat ya to a story." Then Chris took it the wrong way and was like, "dude, I work my ass off! Give me a break, I'm still doing this because my heart and soul is in it, others don't care as much...so lay off...cuz i'm the best." So then Chad was like, (what the heck it was a joke, but now I’m not admitting it was a joke because you made me mad.) "You suck, I hate you!" And then Chris was like.." screw you, I’m the best." Wow, looks lame to me also! So guys, grow up, this is the internet, you can’t get all emotional over a little comment? You need to read it as what its worth, last time I checked, its difficult to put emotions in text. Chris out of all the people, you should know that innovation is at its best with user comments, no need to chirp at someone. Plus you look low when you give us the stats about how BIG you are now…duh, we know that, we made you big. Chad probably told all his phone buddies about how cool you are. It’s all about treating your customers… can we hug now? I will need to collect a $20 counseling fee! Hmm… Lets follow these posts.

I took the time to respond to let you know how to avoid the situation in the future. If you don't submit a news tip, don't complain about the news not being here. Being part of the problem is to gripe and complain. Being part of the solution is to help improve the news reporting. Which one did you do? And, the site you cited isn't even a part of the mobile media. Again, I still don't see a single member of the mobile media that took the time to cover this story before us. P.S. The assertion that our viewership is shrinking is laughable. We continually have to invest hundreds of dollars each month in server upgrades, and we expect to be pushing the terabyte barrier in terms of bandwidth by year's end. With every single page as bandwidth-optimized as possible, the notion that we're losing viewers is simply naysaying.

I actually saw this on a forum and if it was such a waste of time to reply to me then why do it? oh and then try and justify your rudeness by saying I'm part of the problem. It's no wonder you keep losing readers. I keep giving you another chance I don't know why though. Oh and you didnt break this news either http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2008/05/16/live-search-drops-goodies-into-windows-mobile Oh what does the date on there say? the 16th yes you were behind. wow why not be a jerk then Chris?

Microsoft doesn't post release dates. It's possible it was released a couple of days ago, but we're breaking the news on it... so being behind is not really an accurate statement. We generally don't respond to these kind of comments... it's really a waste of our time to play that game. If you see the news elsewhere, why not submit a news tip next time?
