I don't get it ... why does everyone doubt microsoft more than any other company? Clearly microsoft is taking the effort to recruit talent and realizes the need to be innovative ... this site seems to be full of fanboys
800 employees? Will those actually be able to do anything? A "Concept Development Center" they say. Interesting, but who thinks of the concepts? Steve Balmer? or is Microsoft just following the leaders in the industry trying to compete with ideas which are not its own? When was the last time we saw anything innovative in Microsoft? Yes, they might gain some good markets and stuff, but they will never be leaders in what they plan to do, they are just to fat to run that fast, the best they can do is stay on the track.
Another will address "e-mail overload," especially organizing and viewing less important messages.
Maybe MSFT will buy Xobni and ask them to move to Cambridge now...
