MS to Google: We Do Free Online Apps Too
Monday July 13, 2009
It’s a bit like tennis: Google serves the ball, Microsoft returns; Microsoft serves, Google returns. The latest serve is Microsoft’s entry into the free online application zone. Office 2010 Web Applications will include Word, PowerPoint, Excel and OneNote. Anyone with a free Windows Live account will be able to create, edit, and share existing documents with other people online without having to pay Microsoft a dime - that's something I never thought I would see...
PCWorld did a nice job detailing this online offering in its blog “ Office 2010: Most Innovations Are Online”.
Google, you're up. What’s next in the battle to shake the Microsoft tree?
