About

Got Zune is a Blog about the Microsoft Zune. Got Zune has been a long time coming. It’s now, finally, alive and kicking.

Got Zune will feature news, tips, reviews, and discussion about the Microsoft Zune!

What took you so long?
Well that’s a good question and I will be 100% honest. When the original Zune came out, I was really excited. Being a Microsoft MVP, Mobile Devices, this was something was really looking forward to. Here is where it gets kind of sappy… A good friend of mine, Jason Dunn, created Zune Thoughts. Plain and simple, I didn’t want to copy nor compete with a friend. I had thought about it but I procrastinated long enough and Jason beat me to the punch. I was really busy with my other sites that I didn’t really mind though.

Weeks and months have gone by and as we approach Zune 2 Launch, I really wanted to help the Zune Community with my own gig. I revitalized DAPsite.com (previously DellDJsite.com), but I really didn’t want to cram Zune down the throats of a general DAP site. I created another blog with Zune in the title, but it took a week to type it in. So I decided on GotZune.com. Yippee!

My Zune Evangelism has already been noted!
Even though this site is brand new, I have been hot on the trails evangelizing the Zune. When Zune originally launched, I was at the store buying the hell of them. I bought 3 the 1st day. I ended up giving a couple away too.

I covered the launch in detail on Mobilitysite.com and my Youtube videos showed many the glory of the Zune! My Video 1st Look and Microsoft Zune 2nd Look received 1000’s of views and I have gotten over 200 emails asking more about Zune and many emails thanking me for turning them on to Zune.

Who is behind Got Zune?
So, far, just a couple of us!
