A Day at Zune HQ

Was reading an interesting post over at ZuneInsiders.com and thought you might be interested as well.

When people hear I work for Zune, the question I get most often is, "What's it like there?"

So here's a little diary of a real day. Like Jack Bauer of 24 fame, I'm telling my story in real-time…minus the boring parts, like when I go to the restroom. Here goes. This is Friday, February 13.

Seems pretty busy in Zune HQ, lots of tickets to track and answer, milestones to reach, bugs to fix. The one thing I did like?

…And my husband is instant-messaging me, commenting on the music I'm playing (it shows up in my Messenger as my status). At the same time, I'm trying to write a mail that will go team-wide and let them know where we are in the planning for our next milestone and what documentation, costing, and prototyping work is due today and in the next few weeks….

The one place they allow music at work. I like it. Looking forward to the new releases set this fall, I wonder what is in store.
