Don’t look now, but Microsoft is finally working to tune up its Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) site. The effort promises to resolve long-running frustrations developers have encountered working with the online library and resource. <\/p>\n
Redmond Developer News<\/i> has learned that Microsoft has assembled a task force to determine how it can improve MSDN, a site that aggregates much of Microsoft’s technical content for developers. The task force, which spent much of this week in New York interviewing developers, made a stop last night at the monthly meeting of the NYC .NET Developer’s Group held in Microsoft’s New York offices. The task force revealed its effort to a group of more than 100 people attending the meeting. <\/p>\n
“There’s great content there. It’s very thorough, but from a practical standpoint, it doesn’t really meet people’s needs,” said Brian Hsi, a product manager involved in the effort, who made his pitch at the meeting. “It’s kind of static. It’s really a library at the end of the day.” <\/p>\n
