Microsoft reponds to "The Internet Services Disruption"

Has Microsoft lost its technical leadership position to Google and other web-centric companies? Don't count on it. Microsoft has a solid history of remaking itself, and this time they've turned to Ray Ozzie, creator of Lotus Notes and Groove collaboration tools, to turn the software behemoth around.

"Ozzie's assignment is to webify everything: to intertwine Microsoft's entire product line—software for consumers, software for businesses, Xboxes, all of it—with the vast and ever-growing power of the Net."

According to reporter David Kirkpatrick (Microsoft's New Brain ByFORTUNE, April 18, 2006), Microsoft is becoming a media company as it embraces Internet services.
