Title: "Suppose you were an idiot; and suppose you were a member of Congress
And Google owns Blogspot and the Blogger software for it, so there would be your blogs. Microsoft has some blogs on MSN, but nothing like Blogspot.

But, por favor, try and consider my objective as a copy editor,

The headline is catchy.
 
Matthew,  Mark, Luke, John , and  Apple
and you get confusion ( except in Silicon Valley )
People do eat apples, you know, not just plug them in.
 
Maybe I could have said Matthew , Mark, Luke, John and  Godaddy
but that would have caused problems of its own.
 
I settled on Microsoft because, despite all the sterling qualities of Apple,
most people use MS equipment and identify the cyberword to large extent
with the empire of Bill Gates.

The trendier equivalent would be:

* Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Google?

OR

* Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Facebook?

Though I concede that Microsoft gives you better alliteration.

Actually, blogging and social media is one area where Microsoft seems almost completely absent.  Even Facebook appears to be phasing them out.
