‘Softie in question: KC Lemson

Job title: Lead Program Manager – Windows Phone 7 (Photos & Camera)

Congratulations on the Windows Phone 7 launch. Let's go back to the beginning. Tell me about your first experience with technology and communications.
That’d be 1988 - when I got into BBSing. The technology was just a means to an end. As a twelve-year-old, I was simply into meeting new people and keeping in touch with friends.

But, as I got more and more into BBSing, I started playing around with the technology to see how it all worked. I was still just having fun, but I was definitely on the forefront of something new. I mean, I met my first boyfriend on-line and let me just say that in 1992 on-line dating wasn’t exactly mainstream.

Did you go on to study computer science or communications?
