Dear JobsBlog: I just study the blog post Anne posted about the Connector in Seattle. I am going to be a new hire with a start date at the end of August 2008. I'm starting to figure out moving/living situations, and was wondering where I could find out more regarding the Connector and their stops/commute time? I'd appreciate any help I could get in finding a great location to move to. - Cindy Answer: Hi Cindy - Congratulations,
Office Standard 2010! Yes, the Connector service - commuter buses that shuttle Microsofties to and from our main campus in Redmond - have been a great addition. The Connector Team is always evaluating the needs of employees in terms of routes and stop times so it's tough to say what the exact service will be when you move in August. However, the Seattle Times did publish a map of the service at launch, which is similar to your route it still follows. Areas all around Seattle include Queen Anne / Belltown,
Windows 7 Discount, Capitol Hill / First Hill, Bothell / Mill Creek, Snoqualmie, Issaquah, and Sammamish,
Purchase Office 2010, and buses leave roughly hourly between 6:30 am and 9:30 am and 4:30 pm and 7:30 pm. Also, the SeattlePI has a great section of their site on Puget Sound area neighborhoods,
Office 2010 Standard Key, to learn more about how these areas differ. Do any Microsoft employees or Seattle locals have thoughts on great places to live,
Microsoft Office 2010 Standard, especially to take advantage of the Connector? - Anne
