Like many, I've watched the Chrome OS announcement  (Including the demo)....I'm still trying to figue out why I wold buy a netbook with Chrome OS, given that I would still need a full featured PC for the other stuff I need to do (Serious editing, analysis of data, presentsations ...etc.). To day with my cheap netbook running  Windows 7, i can do everything the Chrome OS does and much more !...and about boot time, have you experienced the speed at which a Win 7 PC resumes from sleep mode.( I do not remember the last time I rebooted my PC).....I'm still to be convinced.

In my previous post, I shared with you my excitement about Google Wave which has the potential to be a game changer in the web communications and collaboration space....Well, this week is rich in announcements and Microsoft is also decided to change the game with Bing. Bing will change your search experience on the web...in a positive way.

What a week !!...After a successful 2 days SharePoint Conference in Dubai, I flew to Istanbul to do a repeat. What an experience !!...SharePoint is such an amazing product. More than a year after it's release, this product still generates such an excitement, drawing record crowds for a non-free event (Which is unusual for Microsoft in this region). The feedback I have from customers and partners attending the two events is overwhlemingly positive. My colleagues from the product team, from Redmond, MVPs and from the local team have done a great job showing the large number of areas where SharePoint can help in the enterprise.

 

I've already been asked about when will the next edition occur :-)
