Like to watch Cricket in your office? Join Microsoft !

This is something unheard of; talk about benefits to Microsoft employees.  Few days back we came to know that Microsoft will actually be showing the World cup cricket tournament (about 51 matches, 8 hours each) in its Redmond and Silicon Valley campuses.  All the Microsoftie cricket fans were excited to know that.  And if that was not enough, yesterday we came to know that it will also be telecasted on the internal TV.  So instead of going and watching the games in the cafeteria or a conference room, we can actually watch them in our offices.  All the offices in Microsoft campuses have TV jacks as well as the regular data and voice jacks.  One can hookup a TV in the office and there are tons of external TV channels that you can watch, apart from some internal channels used for Microsoft specific purposes.

This is superb!! work and fun couldn’t be any closer.
