A useful resource for all windows API trivia

That guy did a lot of work on the Windows APIs, in particular in the GUI
and shell areas. He routinely posts interesting, and often funny,
accounts of why things in Windows are as they are, as well as occasional
links to internal docs on the semantics of particular
APIs/constructs/types etc. Well worth reading if you are feeling bored
;)
