I'd mentioned an AJAX based office suite that'd let you do all your word processing using a browser.
Thinkfree lets you do exactly that. I am still in the process of installing plugins that'll let me use it. But its a wonderful service and will definitely find a lot of takers.

Yet Another Aggregator
I guess its stale news already, but i thought i'll mention it anyways.
Google seems to want to have a share of everything on the web. And so they have an aggregator. Is it any good? Any different? I dont think so. Its just another aggregator. Whats the idea google???

Skype for eBay's Customers
Overnight, Skype has transformed from being the global telephone company threatening major telco's to a communications tool for eBays customer's.
eBay will be acquiring Skype for a whopping $ 4.1 billion.
Why would an online auctions company want to do with a Internet based Telephone Company?
Even if it somehow made sense, they could have developed their own IP based application for communication or bought so many other applications available at a much lesser cost.
Besides if eBay users did get to interact with each other directly, would they need eBay. They could make deals outside eBay too. So whats the idea here??
Somehow, one cant help feeling eBay has made a lot more money in this deal that its paying out :).
That pretty much leaves this space open to the other players like Google Talk, Gizmo, MSN, Fwd Networks , IPTEL etc who will be vying for this space.
However it is highly unlikey that one of these will dominate the scene like Skype did. But whats also important is most of these players are SIP based and do not run on propietory standards like skype or voiceglo.
With many players coming into the picture now services such as xConnect may soon be extremely popular.

AJAX Office
An entire office suite will soon be available on your web browser.
AJAX Office suite will be to MS Office as gmail is to Outlook. Cool eh..
Yahoo!! Google!!! could probably hold all our files on their servers, making everything accessible from anywhere!!! It'll definitely give Microsoft something to think about. Just imagine, you wouldnt need the MS Office suite anymore!!!
