- Comment I cannot tell what counts as notability for people in this field. The publications are presentations at Microsoft Management Summits, and I don't know how important that is. DGG 01:28, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

- Delete. The article seems to be putting forward the "blogger" explanation as what he's notable for (it's the first of the nouns it uses to describe him) but lists no secondary source for the notability of his blogs. The only thing that lends an appearance of notability to this is a link to press quotes, but they're all from the same online news site (techtarget.com) whose notability I'm not convinced of. When I try a Google news search I see no real press, only the same web sites. —David Eppstein 17:40, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
