Microsoft is snapping up some off-the-beaten-path hires,
Office 2010 Pro Plus, as of late.The most recent to join The Empire: Previous Jupiter Analysis analyst Michael Gartenberg. In his new role at Microsoft,
Office Professional Plus, Gartenberg is going to be "an enthusiast evangelist." This new group of individuals is charged with doing "outreach to users" and creating new content for Microsoft's Channel 10,
Office Standard 2007, according to Microsoft Technical Evangelist Jeff Sandquist. (Thanks to former Softie Robert Scoble for the heads-up on Gartenberg. Here's Gartenberg's own posting on his new Microsoft gig.) Sandquist also recently hired previous Infoworld writer and analyst Jon Udell to be an evangelist on his team. All this has me wondering who's next. [Poll=7] Any other write-in candidates?
