LiveSide authors Harrison Hoffman, Chris Overd, and Kip Kniskern are all Windows Live MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals), recognized by the company to be among the most knowledgeable about Windows Live in the world. In February of 2006, Microsoft Watch called LiveSide's writers “sneaky geniuses,” and it’s become their unofficial motto.
