Finally Microsoft comes around and does something noteworthy online. It doesn't happen very often, and even though this one is cheesy and boring, the presentation is very nice. Needless to say, Internet Explorer only.
makes me sick, is so soft so, so unbelivable soft. =), hehe. but thats just me.
solid presentation done in classic microsoft style. I found this very useful in my research on modern business presentations. Now I just have to one-up this one!
made me want to puke. it's an okay presentation but the whole thing is so cheesy. never thought the day would come when styleboost bows down to M$, especially when the site only works in explorer. and there's so massive loading times in there even on a fast connection. yuck!
It sucks. It downright sucks. Starting with that cheesy, pathetic, overemotionalizing music (the type only Americans can produce), sporting dated 90s type and a totally outdated 2advanced-style hi-gloss design, not to speak cliché case examples (with dumb stock imagery), it's a pain to behold. this is the contrary of the word 'style'. i thought styleboost was a safe haven from this kind of stuff. like the other links a lot though...
Who cares if it's Microsoft? Don't judge it based on being Microsoft or whoever - the design is ver y clean and the use of lifestyle imagery is done well - only criticism is that there's too much use of the same technique. Animations are clean and flowed well. Someof the animations moved a little too fast at times for me to really grasp what was being shown. Overall though this is one very nice presentation.
This site is very clean and smooth. I think they did a great job softening a rather cold industry. (technology) Sensationalized? Yeah, but so is Apple. That's not the point.
The animation is smooth and someone really understands timing and focus. This piece also brings great attention to detail.
I would agree with Nate, there could have been more variety in some of the transitions and other techniques, although I would rather see it slim and f
It sickens me that people hails sites like liftswitch.org as a work of genius, while sites like this is "cheesy" and "suck", just because it's got the MS logo. Grow up, children.
Works for me on Firefox 0.9.2 Mac OS X
"Constructive criticism only, please."
HA! ;-)
well done but déjà vu... corporate style, stock photos, consensual music, demagogic & generalists remarks : in fact, this site could be that of any business company ; too clean & no personality.
sterile, evil, corporate, boring, gay.
Sorry styleboy - this site sucks.
Way to many load scenes, and even with my modest broadband takes to long, nearly as long as XP to shut down ;) Typical MS.............................................................................................. what are eggs anyway ?
This site about the same amount of personality as well used bimbo
This site is awesome and i don't care what u think about MS this site is really awesome.

looks like a nice design, however only the bottom third shows up in the browser. I'm on a Mac so I'm not surprised I can't view something that Microsoft made, but from what I can see, it seems clean. I just wonder if anyone else sees the same issue. It's the only site I've ever had problems viewing from StyleBoost. Nice collection by the way!
