So since Microsoft is now buying Groove, do we see more collaboration coming from their side?

If Ray Ozzie is now the CTO under Bill,
I am curious to see where it heads from here. More thoughts shortly,
I have a conference call.
Microsoft
is acquiring Groove Networks and the Groove team will join the Information
Worker line of business under the leadership of Jeff Raikes.
· Ray
Ozzie, Groove Founder and creator of IBM Lotus Notes will take on the role
of Chief Technical Officer, reporting to Bill Gates, where he will be working
on a broad range of technologies and projects.
· The
acquisition is expected to be complete in the second quarter of 2005 subject
to regulatory approval.
· Groove
will continue to operate from its Beverly, Mass., headquarters.
·
There will also be
an accompanying press release issued shortly and can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2005/mar05/03-10GroovePR.asp
