Dave Winer writes “Robert Scoble just called to say that he’s leaving NEC to join Microsoft as technical evangelist for a new product in development. He’ll work for Robert Hess, a smart guy I’ve known for many years. It’s a good match, a dream job for Scoble, and Microsoft gets a foot in the blogging world, and enthusiastic evangelism from a true believer. Congratulations to Robert and to his new employer.” [from Scripting News]
