Microsoft’s Yahoo Chase Leaves Ballmer Boring at CES
This is what happens when you focus on corporate intrigue instead of technological improvement. You get boring. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer spent most of 2008 trying to eat Yahoo in a bid to fight Google. Now he has absolutely nothing interesting to announce at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show. Even his buddy Bill Gates won’t attend his keynote.
Let the snoozing audience serve as a reminder: Microsoft needs less negotiation, and more innovation. That may be difficult for a non-techie like Ballmer to understand — but he must understand if he’s to satisfy his burning hatred for Google CEO Eric Schmidt. Someone needs to remind Steve-O that he’s in the software business, not the drama business.

Perhaps it’s time for a career change for Ballmer. 😛
He has a future as a circus monkey.

That would work too.
I have three words:
I LOVE LINUX!!
:p
Linux: more serious than Ballmer. 😆
These videos are NOT me!
Of course not, Steve-O. You’re all about advertisers now. 😉
He looks like an autistic kid moving around.
He’s always been hyper.
Is that so? Hehe, he really has a destiny Sir Mike!

Gee. That’s a bummer. Not that I’m doubting him or anything, but he really needs to get Microsoft’s arse up to make them innovative not just some giant company solidifying its reputation. Right now, I’m starting to dislike his enthuasiastic “pro-developers” speeches.
Now he says he’s all about advertisers. The guy has no idea what Microsoft’s really about anymore.
In my head, he’s underestimating the real deal about advertising. Bet he doesn’t give a damn anymore.
You’d win that bet. All he cares about anymore is getting Eric Schmidt.
