The Wiki Blog

While it may be true that Microsoft sold twice as many copies of Windows 7 than any previous version, this figure fails to account for the increase in the number of computers and computer users. Sure, it's easy to beat Windows Vista, that even today has much fewer users than XP. I don't have any evidence regarding the number of computers back in 2001, when XP was released, and now, but I'm pretty sure that it probably more than doubled. So, when scaling the number of sales by the number of computers, it turns out that a smaller percentage of people bought Windows 7.

This is a classic Microsoft marketing trick: omit critical details to turn the numbers in their favor.

This is your wiki's blog first post. Its goal is to provide a short description of your blog's main features.

• You can create new blog posts through the input field located on your Blog's homepage. The status of a blog post may be any one of the following:
  • Unpublished: your post is still a draft. It can be seen by its creator and by administrators. Once you have clicked publish, you cannot unpublish a post. However, you can choose to hide it.
  • Published: your post can be read by every user that has access to your blog.
  • Published & hidden: your post is published but only its creator and admins can see it. This is useful if you need to make modifications on a post that has already been published by mistake.

• Every blog article can be tagged and/or categorized:
  • You will be able to browse posts by category using the panel located on the left of the page
  • You can create new categories and subcategories when creating a new post
  • The use of tags allows your article to be found by browsing your wiki's tags, along with any other wiki document

• Blog-specific panels are available on the left of your blog page:
  • The recent posts lists the most recent entries to any visitor of the blog
  • The unpublished panel lists the blog posts you created, but didn't yet publish
