How Microsoft Refuses to Retreat
Google seems to be gunning for world domination. Everyone knows it, and the path to world domination runs right through the office of Bill Gates. If Google wants to be king, they have to take down the current king, which is Microsoft.
In a recent article on Mashable, it spoke about how Facebook and Microsoft are teaming up to create Docs.com, an online system that allows users to share Microsoft Office documents with others. Sound familiar?
This seems to be a smart move. Although Office is still the standard when it comes to word processing and other business tasks, Google docs was certainly starting to threaten. For Microsoft to act now before Google docs got too widespread means it has a chance to preserve the supremacy of Microsoft. At least for now.
What does all of this mean for the future, and for you, the small business owner? I have absolutely no idea. I just found it a fascinating article and felt it was worth sharing.
Actually, I take that back. The article kinda sucks, and really only gives a small amount of information. But I found the topic to be fascinating enough to share.
But don’t take my word for it. Go read it yourself.
