A new LIVE MESSENGER Homepage Preps the way for Office 2010 Launch

On April 16, microsoft project 2007’s Newsroom included an article entitled, “Microsoft Word 2010 Coauthoring Enables Multiple Visitors to Work on a Document at the same time! ” The piece discussed the coauthoring collaboration tool that is allowed to be popular when this Office Suite is finally released to the public! It also included an interview with one of the game makers of the tool, ms project 2010, in which he stated, “Our goal is actually not to change the way people work, but to make the way that people work easier! ” In accordance with this statement, a few days later, I received a message in my hotmail inbox alerting me to a new LIVE MESSENGER homepage! It advertised a new section of the homepage that includes social networking feeds- Facebook and Twitter to be exact! Nice effort to tie in the simple collaboration and communication, which project professional 2007 is moving toward! Though, I was a bit disappointed to find that this component to the page is hidden in the bottom corner! It actually took me a minute to locate it even though I was searching it out! It was easy enough to set up the live feed once I located it though! I also like the simple editing the page to fit my interests! Choose from the RSS for suggested by LIVE MESSENGER, or select your own, including ZDnet! All and all this page upgrade is a nice introduction to the new Microsoft! Though, I still have my booking as to how great Office 2010 will be! Google Docs, along with its selection of cousin applications, are improving at such a rapid rate, it makes me wonder if even a software giant can sometimes stride! We will will just wait with baited air to see exactly how well the public takes to Microsoft’s new venue!
