Microsoft Office 2003 Customers Boost

the Availability of Two New Office
Business Intelligence Accelerators 06/02/2004 12:06 PM
Microsoft Corp. today announced the availability of two new Office 2003 Business Intelligence (BI) Accelerators, the Microsoft® Office Business Scorecards Accelerator and the Microsoft Office Excel Add-in for SQL Server (TM) Analysis Services. Designed for and built on the Microsoft Office System and Windows Server System (TM) , the Office BI Accelerators provide customers and partners with increased access to data that is critical to maximizing business performance. Information workers and industry partners can also use the accelerators to assess performance in real time and reshape strategy and redeploy resources as market conditions change, staying one step ahead of their competition. By taking advantage of existing Microsoft technology investments, the accelerators are a cost-effective way for end users and partners to increase their business insight and automate formerly manual business processes, providing greater efficiency, productivity and enhanced decision-making.

Microsoft and IBM Move Accounts

Microsoft and IBM Move Accounts 02/18/2004 02:25 AM
Two technology giants, IBM and Microsoft, are reassigning promotional accounts with spending estimated at more than $500 million, decisions that underline the increasing importance of marketing communications outside the realm of traditional advertising. The accounts being awarded by International Business Machines and Microsoft to agencies owned by the Interpublic Group of Companies and the WPP Group cover assignments unrelated to producing television commercials, print advertisements and billboards. Rather, the work is primarily centered on what is known as customer relationship management - that is, efforts to strengthen the loyalties of current customers that can range from offers of free merchandise to invitations to sponsored events.

Microsoft bl0ggers on the move

Microsoft bl0ggers on the move 12/05/2003 03:14 AM

Microsoft's bloggers are on the move. Tons of Microsoft employee bloggers have been reopening their blogs over on the .NET Weblogs. The problem is that that homepage now is flying by very fast. Whew. Tons of interesting info. Do you like Microsoft bloggers over there mixed in with community? They used to be over on GotDotNet.

I don't know if I like this new approach, but I'm watching and learning.

Feel free to give frank feedback about this new approach. I'll pass it along.

I wish we could have tons of decentralized communities and not try to do everyone in one centralized place. Why should an employee who wants to blog about the XBOX, for instance, be stuck into .NET Weblogs?

Microsoft still doesn't have a formal policy or a centralized recommendation. It's just that a bunch of employees got someone to open blogs up on GotDotNet and they outgrew that home. I imagine that the .NET Weblogs will be quickly outgrown too.

Right now we're early on in the process of having employees weblog. Imagine what'll happen if the numbers grow from a few hundred to a few thousand? We need to build better systems now to prepare for the growth.

Any ideas?
