Prediction: 2006 is the year Office moves to the web

Tuesday, December 27th, 2005

The cool thing is that this isn’t coming from me, who would obviously benefit from such a move, but from a recent San Jose Mercury News article that attempts to make some bold predictions for 2006.

“On Demand Software” article on SFGate

Sunday, December 25th, 2005

I just read a great article about On Demand Software over at SFGate. It’s interesting to see the mainstream media perspective on this trend, and it makes what we’re doing feel that much more real.

For all you folks who have been patiently waiting to be added to our beta… it wont be long now (Less than a month or so). We’ve been polishing up some great new features that we’re really excited to share with everyone.

Happy Holidays!
