Microsoft evangelist returns to analysis firm
ENT News | at | by Mike
A leading analyst, who recently joined Microsoft to become a technology evangelist, quietly went back to his old job last week.
Michael Gartenberg, long a fixture of the industry analyst corps, took many observers by surprise in mid-February when he announced on his blog that he was trading in his objectivity and moving to Microsoft as an "enthusiast evangelist."
"Our job is to find, engage and work with enthusiasts and other influencers and show them all the cool stuff that Microsoft is doing [and] act as the bridge between Microsoft and end users," Gartenberg described his new job in a blog post at the time.
