Visual Studio Gains a Teammate

Visual Studio Team System is an important development tool for Microsoft, partly because it truly offers deep collaboration, but also because it has a high-end price tag and presumably large profit margins.

But not all are willing to pay big bucks to access Team System, which is where devBiz, just acquired by Microsoft, fits in. This company, now part of Microsoft, offers Web access to many of Team System's collaboration features. This could improve your development project and save a few bucks in the process!

One of the coolest aspects is that it was announced at VSLive!, a show the Redmond Media Group now owns.
