Regarding these online office suites, I think that ThinkFree was the only one that got it right. Windows Live! Is a Joke and is basicly an alternative msn portal so far. Why do it? Similiar projects have died off. I’m sure it could be done but I’m sure the processing costs will exceed ad revenue. I believe creating online softare suites rather than software thats actually on the PC will not provide effective competition to desktop software because of having to be online and the wait for pages to load and privacy concerns. Why is it that I understand this stuff but CEOs dont?

Google should pay attention to other useful projects.įor example, if they created user profiles (the same way myspace operates) in combination with GMail and Google Talk! the possibilities could be extreme.Ĭombine that with auctions and a payment processor with storefronts, and the most powerful search on the net and you got something that will be hard to beat. Other than that I don’t see much use for it.

Looks to me like they are wanting to build a portal
