Microsoft's Internet Explorer 11 web browser officially launched in October when it was included in the Windows 8.1 update, but the final version for Windows 7 was not released until early November. Today, newly updated numbers from a research firm Net Applications shows that IE11 surged up nearly two percentage points in November to claim 3.27 percent of the worldwide web browser market share, up from just 1.49 percent in October. This month, 3.27%. Next month, the world!

Windows Phone 8 has been available on the market since late-October, 2012. That makes it more than a year old in human time and quite a bit older in tech years. They keep forgetting to put an Apple logo on it

Potentially Unwanted Programs or PUPs as we like to call them, are things like Toolbars, Search Agents, etc. Unnecessary junk for your desktop that usually involves monitoring your surfing/shopping habits and slowing down your system with their sub-par software that ends up hurting you much more than helping.

It's been established that Microsoft believes the iPad has many, many flaws. Now Redmond would like you to know that the Samsung Galaxy Tab isn't all that either. It's a good way to learn who the #1 and #2 are

This code drop corresponds to the release of the Visual F# Tools for F# 3.1 as part of Visual Studio 2013. We have also recently released some great new samples showing the unique power of F#. For those who like to get functional

New reports suggest Ford's Alan Mulally and Microsoft exec Satya Nadella are ahead of rivals including Nokia boss Stephen Elop in the race to replace Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. Maybe this will lead to them doing crash tests?

He's apparently good friends with Ballmer.
Which I would think is one of the many reasons to disqualify him.
