Microsoft will provide a free online version of Office 2010 for 60 days that lets people store their documents on the Web rather than on their personal computers. Microsoft today launched an updated version of its office software, aiming to once again control the business application market and to fight free online applications provided by competitors like Google. The new update version of the software has features like editing photos in Word, using video in PowerPoint, collaborating on documents and managing e-mail conversations in new ways. But the most interesting facet is Microsoft’s move into the “cloud” — allowing users to manipulate documents stored on remote servers from anywhere — where Google has been setting the pace. |
