Scenario:
Is Microsoft Office Live Workspace the best in Web 2.0 apps and services (Software + Service)?
Off course, the answer is Yes. Why?
If you understand, it is the Product knowledge which has increased our domain knowledge. So what will happen to your product skills set, and how you can reuse your product knowledge capabilities?
For technical writers who use WIKI, Confluence and so on. I can authoritatively say the you will not able to deliver a single sourcing solution without using your products. Therefore, by using Office Live Workspace, you can continue to increase you product skillset and also create more document life cycle.
Image the other way, what will happen to all other Product vendor who will loose business because of end of product release life cycle, causing due to SaaS and SOA. Think, Think!!!!!!!!!
Not everything could be like Google doc. Google does not have any product release life cycle that are being used by many. Therefore, the Microsoft way of showcasing how product developing vendors can increase ROI and further continue product releases.
Therefore as Web2.0 app and Services, Office Live Workspace is the best.
