For quite some time, Microsoft has had a relatively high-level manager blogging under the pseudonym "mini-microsoft". This blogger is widely considered to be the real deal, not some imposter posing as a Microsoft employee. One of Mini's theme's since the inception of the blog has been that Microsoft needs to downsize / rightsize - thus the nickname "mini-microsoft". The blog has also gone to great lengths to expose flaws in the way in which employees are reviewed and rated against one another.  

Recently, Microsoft announced plans to scrap the old method of rating its employees on a curve, which was one of mini's main complaints. There are also a number of other changes going on at Microsoft that mini finds encouraging, and thus has decided to take a break from the intense posts mini had become renowned for. 

Many have called for mini to reveal him or herself, but it is expected that due to the level of detail mini had exposed Microsoft's internal practices, it would be a career ending move. Mini reports no intention to reveal himself, but will be taking a reprieve from blogging for awhile to see how these new changes take shape.
