Word blogging: Microsoft’s answer to Writely? 19 May, 2006
It looks like the new version of Microsoft Word will support blog publishing. It certainly makes sense. Word is about writing (allegedly) and so are blogs. But one has to wonder at the timing of the announcement. Beta 2 seems awfully late for something so obvious and so likely to bring blogging to a mass audience. Could it be that Microsoft are responding to Google’s acquisition of Writely and its blog front-end features?
