Google Snuggles with Microsoft Office
June 10, 2009
Short honk: You have been inundated with information about the most recent stick in the ribs administered by Google to Microsoft. Reuters’ news item here summarized the information revealed at one of Google’s Googley meetings on June 9, 2009. The pointy end was a product called Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook or GASMO. One tiny step toward a dataspace in which Microsoft Office is little more than a rivulet of information. What’s Microsoft’s next move? Could Microsoft coders make an error that renders the Google widget inoperable? No, never.
