Windows Azure Documentation Voting
The Windows Azure team is always trying to improve the way that you learn to use Windows Azure. One of the ways that we are doing this is to provide as much helpful content as possible in the Windows Azure MSDN Library.
Conceptual content, how-to topics, getting started lists, graphics, and video are just some of the ways that this is being accomplished. We need your help to decide what content is most useful for you.
Please review the list below of possible content ideas and vote on the ones that interest you, or you can add one of your own.

Msdn online - version selector
I like when working with SQL server that I can reference MSDN online for a particular Transact-SQL command and using the link at the top of the page, I can quickly check how (or if) that feature works in a different version of SQL server. We currently support SQL2005 and above for our software (including Azure). I would like to see SQL Azure in that MSDN online help filter.

Partial downtime resilient architecture
When building apps on Windows Azure, you tend to rely on *many* remote services: storage, SQL, appfabric, provisioning API ... Although, it's convenient to assume that everything works faultlessly, in practice, we frequently observe glitches from one service or another.
It would be very nice to document architecture strategies how to make apps more resilient to those partial outages.
