Microsoft Will Launch Something That Made Scoble Cry. I Want (To See Scoble Cry)
Scoble gives no hints as to what it is, but writes this about the product:
It’s even rarer that I see software that I know will change the world my sons live in…While watching the demo I realized the way I look at the world was about to change. While listening to Wong I noticed a tear running down my face. It’s been a long while since Microsoft did something that had an emotional impact on me like that.
The only possible hint is the launch date: February 27. I don’t believe in coincidences and this date just happens to be very close to the official Adobe AIR launch (I’m heading to Sydney for the Asia-Pacific launch event Feb 26). So I’m guessing that maybe Microsoft has picked the date as a spoiler to come after the Adobe event. It could be anything, but I’m thinking that it may be Silverlight related, and it might be related to online/ offline applications. Possibly a kick-ass web office package, or new tools to bring online apps offline. Either way it will be something that made Scoble cry, and I want to see the product, and Scoble cry some more.
