Microsoft Adds Co-Authoring Support For Online Word App

Microsoft Adds Co-Authoring Support For Online Word App

By Krishnan Subramanian on July 7, 2011

After dismissing realtime co-editing feature as too difficult to implement, Microsoft has made a turn around and implemented it on their cloud based Word application. This reversal of stance comes after Microsoft has realized that one of the reasons why users are attracted towards web based office suite is the idea of co-editing. Zoho Office […]

Now You Can Get Your Google Apps Data Backed Up for Free. Startup Econ 101: When Giving it Away is a Good Deal.

By Zoli Erdos on March 15, 2011

Ouch that’s a longish title. OK, I admit, I am tired, could not decide between two messages and ended up combining them.  Well, let’s see the messages. The Art of Pricing The other day I got into a tweet convo with a Startup Entrepreneur whose product I found interesting, at least at first glance.  But […]

IBM LotusLive Symphony: Google Needs To Watch Out

IBM LotusLive Symphony: Google Needs To Watch Out

By Krishnan Subramanian on February 22, 2011

During IBM Lotusphere 2011 earlier this month, I had a chance to see the demo of IBM LotusLive Symphony and interact with the team behind Symphony. LotusLive Symphony is IBM’s new online office suite much along the lines of Google Docs, Zoho Office Suite or Microsoft’s Office Web Apps. Microsoft is a non-starter at this […]

Google Docs, Why 90% of Users Should Migrate Yesterday

Google Docs, Why 90% of Users Should Migrate Yesterday

By Adron Hall on December 29, 2010

Google Docs That video alone pretty much says it all.  It isn’t about the word processor, or the device, it’s just about writing what you want when you want and how you want.  The old legacy mindset of an installed word processor is a bit feeble these days.  Especially considering the integrity of Google Docs […]

Letting Enterprise Users Live In Harmon.ie

By Krishnan Subramanian on December 10, 2010

The event itself was focussed on how collaboration happens today and how we will work in the future using the newer technologies that are pushing the envelope […]

Google Docs Editing: My iPad Just Got More Useful

By Krishnan Subramanian on November 17, 2010

Today Google announced that document editing is now supported on your mobile browser. This means that we can now edit documents from iOS and Android devices.

Defrag and the Bazaar

Defrag and the Bazaar

By Guest Authors on June 24, 2010

Yesterday’s post left us at the doorstep of “radical value propositions.” So, let’s dig in. For the individual a “radical value proposition” isn’t really an overt thing. Individual’s adopt, like, push, cajole and laugh. They rarely perform cost/benefit analysis on a given solution. That doesn’t mean there aren’t “radical value propositions” that become inflection points […]

Fun Social Recommendation Site Likaholix

Fun Social Recommendation Site Likaholix

By Dan Morrill on December 7, 2009

Image by Likaholix via CrunchBase I have been playing with Likaholix for the last week, and have ended up really enjoying the web site and the potential that it creates for people to share the things they do like. This is so much better than Yelp, and without all the drama that Yelp represents. Quite […]

Presentations… And Re-Inventing the Wheel

By Ben Kepes on September 21, 2009

I’m not a huge user of presentation software. I’m blessed to not work for a corporate and hence don’t have to justify my existence with a 40 slide deck resplendent in 12 point text and bad transitions. Yup – it’s fair to say I’m not a huge fan of presentations…. A little while ago I […]

1984 or Panopticon

By Dan Morrill on August 28, 2009

What makes this always interesting is that with the modern cloud computing environment, all you really need is a computer to act as your […]

Time To Uninstall Office 2007

By Krishnan Subramanian on June 1, 2009

Today, Google announced the support for docx and xlsx support for Google Docs. This is a big relief for the users as they are clamoring for the support of Office 2007 formats. Today, I’m happy to be able to answer their question: we’ve added .docx and .xlsx to the list of file formats that we […]
