I know there is a blog called Mini-Microsoft.But is information from those blogs getting to you?I have lots of sources of information about what’s going on at the company.I think I have a pretty good pulse on where we are and what people are thinking.I，m not sure blogs are necessarily the best place to get a pulse on anything.People want to blog for a variety of reasons, and that may or may not be representative.It’s important in my job that I understand broadly the pulse of the company.Over a third of my time, I’m spending with our people interacting with their work.We have a great culture that promotes criticism.I think that does fantastic things.We’re always looking for everything everyone says to make sure that Fm doing what I need to do,and our leaders are doing what they need to do to continue to push the company to new heights.And you see that in the results.Look at the product pipeline, look at the fantastic financial results we’ve had for the last five years.You only get that kind of performance on the innovation side, on the financial side,if you’re really listening and reacting to the best ideas of the people we have.And we’ve got great people.In interviews and on blogs, some employees say you’ve instituted bureaucracy that is hampering innovation so much so that they question whether you should be CEO.
