I grouped these into themes of things that you should pay attention to if you don't want to offend your customers.

One new ray of hope is that &lt;a target="_new" href="http://blogs.msdn.com/jasonmatusow/"&gt;http://blogs.msdn.com/jasonmatusow/&lt;/a&gt; is blogging now. He is the director of shared source at Microsoft and would know a lot more than me about potential projects that are outside the scope of the Developer Tools Division.</description></item><item><title>re: Five Tips on How Not to Offend Customers</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/jledgard/archive/2005/03/15/396368.aspx#396880</link><pubDate>Wed, 16 Mar 2005 17:32:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:396880</guid><dc:creator>Travis Wells</dc:creator><description>Ahhh, great!

Mellis</dc:creator><description>I'd just echo the concern about poor experiences with the Product Feedback Center.  It often takes months to get a response, and they're often no more than &amp;quot;Sorry, we can't implement this.&amp;quot;  What's especially frustrating is that there's often no way to ask for clarification, as follow up comments on closed bugs are usually ignored.</description></item><item><title>re: Five Tips on How Not to Offend Customers</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/jledgard/archive/2005/03/15/396368.aspx#404996</link><pubDate>Sun, 03 Apr 2005 13:25:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:404996</guid><dc:creator>Jim Holmes</dc:creator><description>You've really distilled some great points in your post.  I particularly like the last sentance of the &amp;quot;Boolean View&amp;quot; point.  Too many folks pay too little attention to how they're writing e-mails, wikis, or other online correspondence.  Things are said in a manner via that medium which would *never* be said face to face, and it can have an awful impact on team or customer relations.</description></item><item><title> scooblog by josh ledgard Five Tips on How Not to Offend Customers | fix my credit</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/jledgard/archive/2005/03/15/396368.aspx#9764915</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 Jun 2009 05:26:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9764915</guid><dc:creator> scooblog by josh ledgard Five Tips on How Not to Offend Customers | fix my credit</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;PingBack from &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://fixmycrediteasily.info/story.php?id=6050"&gt;http://fixmycrediteasily.info/story.php?id=6050&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
