Microsoft recently held their Build Windows conference in Anaheim, CA from September 13th to 16th.  Here they gave an in-depth look at their much anticipated new operating system, Windows 8.

Windows-8-tileSocial media firm Mashwork created an infographic based on what people were saying about Windows 8 after it was revealed earlier this year. Half of all tweets favored Windows 8′s Metro style design compared to Apple’s iOS software and Google’s Android operating system. MashWork collated 65,968 messages shared on Twitter between June 15 and September 22. Around 42% of the messages were collected during Microsoft’s BUILD developers conference. MashWork analyzed all the tweets and figured out that Xbox LIVE integration on Windows 8, a Windows App Store and fast boot times in Windows 8 were amongst the most talked about features.

The following infographic summarizes Maskwork findings:
