Microsoft Bringing Office Suite Online

6:20AM Sean Fallon | It was a long time coming, but Microsoft has finally announced that they will be bringing lightweight versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote online. Like existing services from Google and Zoho, users will be able to use a browser to create, edit, and collaborate on Office documents. The online version is also designed to integrate with the next desktop version of Office, so there are no plans to ditch the software component just yet. However, Microsoft is definitely focusing heavily on the Windows Live experience—as we saw recently with their decision to eliminate bundled email and video editing programs from Windows 7. More »

Microsoft Office Documents Editing Coming to the iPhone

5:12AM Jesus Diaz | The developers of Documents to Go–and Microsoft Office documents editor for BlackBerry, Palm, Windows Mobile, and Symbian–are finally bringing it out for the iPhone. This is going to be an interesting one to see, specially since the iPhone doesn’t have any copy and paste capabilities, which are crucial for editing documents of any kind, being from Word, Excel or PowerPoint. Dataviz says the application is “Coming Soon”… could this mean they are actually waiting for Apple to implement it or they are just developing it so it works within their own Office editor? More »

AC/DC Excel Spreadsheet Music Video Has Us Thunderstruck

2:00AM Jack Loftus | Sure, AC/DC may be behind the times on digital distribution. And they could be described as “in denial” about the death of the music album, but this Microsoft Excel spreadsheet music video, while not condoned by the band in any way, is rockin’ our Hell’s Bells this fine Sunday afternoon. Better still, this “music video” was designed with the corporate drone in mind—spreadsheets navigate office firewalls with ease! The video is the fine work of Phil Clandillon and Steve Milbourne, who work at a division of Sony/BMG in London. They call this “the world’s first music video in Excel format.” “Basically, it’s come about because we recognised that a lot of people have fairly restrictive internet and security policies at work,” said Clandillon inan interview with Wired.com. “What we really liked was that we could actually subvert the corporate firewalls by including AC/DC’s music in an Excel spreadsheet, because that’s allowed through every corporate firewall there is.” If you want, you can download the spreadsheet at the AC/DC rocks web site, and start sharing today. No Macs allowed. [Wired] More »
