In this post he convincingly makes the case for an online/offline amalgam Office.)

– [Why Apple Needs the Web 2.0 Revolution](https://web.archive.org/web/20081211063156/http://www.applematters.com/index.php/section/comments/882/) (revolution, schmevolution… just open up your data more Apple, support open standards and keep pumping out the great products!)

– [Structured Blogging in the enterprise](https://web.archive.org/web/20081211063156/http://www.jonathanboutelle.com/mt/archives/2006/03/knowledge_manag.html) (Jonathan says the key payoff of structured blogging in an enterprise context is easing “responsibility transition”)

– [Screenshots of Microsoft Office 2007 user interface](https://web.archive.org/web/20081211063156/http://blogs.msdn.com/jensenh/archive/2006/03/09/547281.aspx) (shown at at the CeBIT conference in Germany)

– [Windows Live Search review](https://web.archive.org/web/20081211063156/http://blogs.zdnet.com/web2explorer/index.php?p=136) (my epic ZDNet review of Windows Live, from last night…)

Thanks for being interested in the Bee.”)
