In the "didn't see this coming" category, Microsoft Corp. has been named the "official provider of software and Web content" for the 2008 Democratic National Convention.

According to the Rocky Mountain News, "Microsoft’s Zune portable music players [also] will be used to deliver media content to convention participants."

There are so many jokes that could be made here - but we here at Zune Luv wouldn't stoop to something like that.

Good to see politics embracing technology.

That's all we're going to say.
