Online Office: It's Alive, Alive!!!!
Microsoft is letting the first of its web services under the Office brand out of its cage. (Hopefully the transmographication won't be like what beset Jeff Goldblum in The Fly).Microsoft's initial beta will include free domain names, websites and email accounts for small biz, and it's ad supported. A subscription service will include collaboration software and project management services. There's a third set of services, which combines the free stuff with the pay-for stuff. Okay, sure.
The free website building and email services could be big, if enough small businesses prefer trusting their lives to free stuff from MS and dealing with the ads. This could generate a lot of ad inventory. I'll be kicking the tires on the beta as soon they let me in.
