Microsoft Partners With WordPress To Help WordPress Users Take Advantage Of Microsoft Technology

Earlier this month, Microsoft expressed it’s unabashed love for WordPress by announcing the launch of WordPress on Microsoft – a website dedicated to helping WordPress users take advantage of Microsoft Technologies.

"Microsoft 'hearts' WordPress". WTF?!

The first thing on everyone’s mind, when they saw this headline, was “Why the F*ck is Microsoft doing this?“. Anticipating this question, Zach Skyles Owens has already posted a response here, on why Microsoft has partnered with WordPress.

The site itself is runs WordPress 2.9 backed by a SQL Server database on Windows Server 2008 R2 Virtual Machine hosted at OrcsWeb.

If you are a WordPress User/Developer as well as a Microsoft Technology Developer like me, you are likely to have a lot of interest in this.
