I'm really impressed not only at Gates' actions post-Microsoft, but that he makes the effort to explain them in such an accessible and public way. I think that's a really positive step and others in a similar position could learn from him.
Yeah, I hate Windows and IE as much as the next techie, but Bill Gates is a great man -- period. I'm a fan. In his early days, he was just thinking business is just a game, so he was kind of ruthless in his business practices. But now that he has already made it, it's great to see his true colors and how deeply benevolent he is. I'm going to start following his blog posts on renewable energy.
