Microsoft At Home and At Work

Are you familiar with the Microsoft At Home and At Work sites? I found out about them because they asked us to prepare a few articles from our book Share Your Story: Blogging with MSN Spaces. So far they've published three articles, "Create an Online Photo Album," "Get Started Blogging," and today's new article, "Mobile Blogging Made Easy."

If you haven't yet seen the site, you may want to check it out. They publish a really good mix of fun, interesting, and practical tips for computer users of various experience levels. Plus they have a great newsletter (our article will be included in the next edition).

If you work as part of a team (especially a team that's spread across multiple locations), this might be the virtual workspace solution for you. Low overhead; no fancy servers needed; files are resident on team members' computers and synced automatically for you. I'm thinking it would be a great way to do online communications training for small groups. The possibilities are endless...

Note: I just noticed that on the Office Groove 2007 home page, they are advertising that you can get a free Groove license for helping to spread the word. This is a good deal! Check it out by clicking here.
