Bill Gates has already lost his position as the world's wealthiest human being. What's next? Microsoft giving in to Apple? I bet Gates wouldn't allow it.
When IE couldn't be enough to sustain the domination, new products and services had to be introduced. Oh even "acquisitions" and "hostile takeovers" as well. There's no doubt Microsoft needs the web to remain on top. Everything nowadays seems web-bound.
It's a good thing Microsoft finally makes greater efforts to capitalize on the Internet proliferation. The Microsoft Office Live is one good idea. "Microsoft Office Live" is a Microsoft service that allows users to save Office documents online so that they may be accessed by other users over the Internet. This new service enables users to save more than 1,000 MS Office documents to one place over the web. It allows users or collaborators to access and modify shared/uploaded documents.
Google, Zoho, and other Internet companies have been offering similar services already. Microsoft's Office Live, though (as the company puts it), is different because it simply makes it easier for users to use their previously purchased Office applications over the Internet.
Microsoft announced that it would offer its online business services to companies of all sizes. In the past, those services were limited to firms with at least 5,000 users. Signing up for the Microsoft Office Live service is for free.
