Microsoft Support

I love it when I am ahead of a big organisation. I am attempting to get access to Microsoft MapPoint Web Services. This should be easy, but I am in Australia. That makes things harder.

Now, I dont care if I get access to the Australian data. I would be happy with the North American data if needed. And this is what I expect to get access to.

I keep getting nowhere from Microsoft. I rang them yesterday, and they were not sure at all about anything. I got a phone call back wanting my MSDN details. They could not find them. OK – well I am an Empower-ed person. So I am special.

Also after my enquiry yesterday MSDN Flash came out talking about MapPoint too.

So as a result of this all, I Microsoft MSDN people in Australia find out this morning that there is actually something happening for Oz.

So I am making a difference. That makes me feel good. Strike a win up for me.
