Decoding Microsoft
Here’s something fun: a tag cloud timeline that reveals the words Microsoft used to describe itself over the years.
You can drag the slider back and forth and see how Microsoft’s language has evolved over three decades.
Thanks to Slashdot for the original link and Chirag Mehta for the tagline generator.
As a writer, I’d love to do the same on my writing. I had a bit of shock over Christmas when I came across my old school and university essays. Some of my style has changed. But there’s a lot that’s still familiar.
