It's very informative. If you do not mind, I've a question; How do you deal with Spam in blog comments? I really hate it, It wastes my time and I hate dealing with it each day. Do you have any suggestions for what I can do to reduce the number of comment spam I get on my blog? Thanks for the suggestions. Thanks a lot for this post. It's very informative.

You'll find the LIVE enabled games in the collection list and "other games" right below in the same list. Yes all games are listed in the Games Hub.

The games hub isn't available in the public emulator, that's all. And all games install into that hub. All this does is allow you to install it into the list of applications on the device instead. The games hub isn't "secret" in any way, it's just not (currently) in the public emulator. What's a "secret compartment"? The games hub isn't available in the public emulator, that's all.

When Zune was added as a solution, the tools were not renamed, so why now? Regardless of potential market share between platforms in terms of users or revenue, naming these tools solely in terms of phone development will only lead to mass confusion and is an effective 'kick in the teeth' to the xbox and windows developers that Microsoft had been courting up until now.
